Airstream Travel Trailers are pre-wired for an

 

Intermountain Solar Technology Solar Panel/Chare

1. YELLOW (like the sun) positive and GREEN (like the

 

earth) negative leads runs from battery breaker buss bar

G

area to a harness inside the exterior refrigerator access

door. The battery buss bar is located behind the sofa

on front lounge models or behind the front cabinets on

slide outs, and next to the battery compartment. Battery

 

cables will run to this bar. Roof mounted panels require

 

dropping the panel wires down through the refrigerator

 

vent to the inside of the exterior refrigerator access

 

door. Portable solar panels can be set outside close

 

to the access door. The wires from the solar panel are

 

connected to the positive and negative wires (yellow

 

and green) of the pre-wire system.

2.A Cat 5 patch cord for the solar panel display runs from the battery buss bar to an area just below the CatCon seven display. The solar panel display panel can be mounted just below the CatCon monitor panel by routing the proper size hole. The Cat 5 wire is plugged into the display panel.

CAUTION: The Yellow wire must be fused with a 10-amp in-line fuse at the 12-volt positive.

NOTE: All wires are identified with labels at all locations.

The Intermountain solar panel has charge controller that should be mounted close to the battery buss bars as the battery leads are hooked into it to sense the actual battery charge. The Cat 5 wire plugs into it also.

The following drawing is the way Airstream wires the system on factory installed units and is the recom- mended wiring for use of the pre-wire system.
