Just got an email from Paul. He's at Sunset Isle RV park in Cedar Key, Florida. Sounds like he's having fun figuring out his Breakaway. Here is a question that he asked me in the email.

"By the way where do you think the household fuse panel would be?"

I told him that assuming he's talking about the DC circuits, I thought it was on top of the AC breaker box in a closet near the bedroom on curbside of aisle just past the bathroom which is on the curbside. But I've been wrong before Roll Eyes

On my Breakaway, the household breaker panel (A/C) is at the foot end of the bed, access thru a door. There are some DC breakers there, transfer relay, converter/inverter also. I think most Breakaways are similar for these components location.

Same for me with the Aristocrat. A pop in panel at the foot of the bed. Just grab the edge and it should pop out. Breaker box transfer switch. I replaced all the glass fuses with a couple of 6 place blade fuses for the 12 volt stuff and I have a couple blanks for ????????

On mine, 30' Breakaway center door, the AC & DC panels are behind a louvered panel, just aft of the head in the hall on the road side.

My 12VDC house and 120VAC panels are under the bed, and accessible through doors. I think there is a difference between models with the fore-and-aft and the athwartships beds.
