Mysterious Items in Bedroom Cabinet!!! 1993 Wanderlodge, WLWB

[Pete Masterson]

Don't have a clue about the rheostat.

Breakers -- the photo doesn't show the amp rating. If 50 amps each,
these could be "mains" for the house 120 vac system. (Try turning
them off and see what happens. I'd do this at home or at a non-
critical time "just in case.")

I have a similar pair of breakers that control my dual inverters...
they're located on the back wall of the bedroom down near the floor,
but my coach layout is quite different due to having the Series 60 DD
engine. So, these may be related to the inverter power.

I note that my coach (apparently) is wired with a separate
distribution system for inverted power -- it does not pass through
the main panel. (I discovered this when I 'killed' the power to the
refrigerator through the main panel, then saw the interior light
working when the inverters were running.) It seems that the inverted
power goes through the pair of breakers that are separate from the
main panel.
