    RV Electrical help

    I have power into the fuse/breaker box but no power coming out.

    Is there anyone familiar that would be willing to talk me thru trouble shooting this on the phone?

        How is your 12 volt battery. I have owned some RV's that must have a 12 volt battery to play....

        Does you AC and outlets work? These do not need 12 volt.

          The outlets nor the ac work, also the 12V system on the downstream side of the fuse box has no power

            How do you know you have power into the fuse/breaker box?

            You might check the main power switch. In ours, its a big red handle/key looking thing in the front storage area. But if that is off, you shouldn't have power to the breakers/fuses.

              Sounds like you have a open neutral. Do you have voltage between hot & ground and also hot & neutral

                  Checked power with a mulitmeter at the fuse/breaker box

                    Maybe a bad main breaker

                      Check between neutral and ground- shouldn't have power between these. If you do you have lost your neutral.

                        also lots of RV's have breakers and fuses. In the same box. Check to make sure you have not popped a fuse.
                        They are normally ATC type fuses

                          Pull a breaker off the buss bar and check voltage on the bar. I have seen a few bussbars go bad

                            I popped a fuse on my inverter once and I had no power at all, check that for sure

                              Ok, so this about where I run out of knowledge , should I have voltage on the buss bar with the breaker pulled out ?
