Wiring the Electrical System

6.1 Before You Begin

!WARNING

The Oasis™ Heating Module and its electrical Control Board are pre- wired and have been thoroughly tested together as a unit.

To review the wiring system for the Oasis™ Heating Module, refer to the wiring diagram at the end of this Section 6, Figure 6-1: System Wiring.

All electrical connections and wiring must comply with normally- accepted 12 VDC and 120 VAC wiring practices, local regulations, and ABYC/RVIA standards. Only a qualified electrical installer should complete the wiring. All field wiring is to be in accordance with CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code Part l or the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

6.212 VDC

!WARNING

The following apply to the 12 VDC connections for the Oasis™ Heating Module:

•There is one paired set of 12 VDC electrical connections on the top right of the Oasis™ Heating Module. They consist of the primary DC positive (red) and negative (black) connection and are 14 gauge stranded copper wires.

Primary DC power should originate from a dedicated connection on the house battery bank. A 20 amp fuse or breaker must be included close to and inline from the battery to the positive (red) connection on the Oasis™ Heating Module. The primary power wire gauge must be sized to permit no more than a 3% voltage drop from the battery to the Oasis™ Heating Module.

•A properly-shielded power system is required for safe, trouble- free operation.
