redi-line ciruit

[Ralph L. Fullenwider]

HI Harold:

Yes I know what your trying to do. This is one of those, I can see it but
can't get there from here things.

The Redi line is set up to poser the ice maker, electric curtains have them> and the 110vac plug in the bathroom. If no elect. curtains then
the rediline powers the 110vac plug at the counter of the galley and
nothing else. There is a relay under the galley sink that is activated when
the gen set or shore power are being used, disconnecting the rediline
circuit. Then when shore power or gen set is not sensed, <by 2 solenoid
relays> the relay pulls in and the rediline circuit works.

If you will check the main breaker box in the closet, you will note that
the 110ac plugs through out the Coach are on different circuits tied with
other breakers for the most part.

I dont have my 240a/c print in front of me, will get it out tomorrow and do
some checking, but, as others have done, the number 12 romex used for the
rediline is not large enough to power up much more than what is on that
line, and certainly no a/c units. And I have not put pencil to paper but
the microwave would be marginal. That and the contact rating on the relay
in that circuit pretty much limits what is run on it alone.

Question:
My '85FC did not have the two 30 amp circuits and the 50 amp. But the
wiring was in the Coach but not the plugs, how is your 85 wired?

Safe travels,
