In the context of RV air conditioning, "shed" typically refers to a mode or feature that allows the AC unit to temporarily reduce its power consumption. This is often used when the RV is connected to a limited power source, such as a generator or a lower-capacity electrical supply. By shedding load, the AC can continue to operate without tripping circuit breakers or overloading the power supply.
What else can I help you with?
Are RV ac units interchangeable?
RV AC units are interchangeable. This is true as long as you replace the whole unit and not just one part.
What does RV mean?
RV stands for 'Recreational Vehicle'.
Can i run ac in RV all day?
Only when your car engin runs.
Is RV generator ac or dc?
RV generators typically produce alternating current (AC) electricity, which is used to power most household appliances and systems in an RV. However, some RVs also have a direct current (DC) system for powering lights and charging batteries. Many RVs incorporate a converter to change AC from the generator into DC for these purposes. Thus, while the generator itself is primarily AC, both AC and DC systems are utilized in RVs.
Why do i still have 12 volt when i use disconnect switch in my RV?
The RV has a 12 Volt DC power supply that operates all the 12 Volt DC items in your RV when your plugged in to 110 V AC.
What does RV-10 mean in the Nerf barricade RV-10?

What does the term 'diesel pusher' mean in the context of a bus or RV?

I have a 2000 Bounder 36ft motorhome a light comes the AC saying shed what does that mean?
The electrical system is taking too much power. The shed light comes on when a relay shuts down an airconditioning unit until there is sufficient power to run them both.
Do RV's use solar power generators?
If you mean a built-in system for your RV, or something attached to the top of your RV, this site may be useful to you: www.amsolar.com/ If you mean a small portable generator that is not attached to your RV, and you want to use it to power appliances in your RV, that option is not as easy. Generators tend to be heavy units and take up a lot of space.
What size power cord do i need to use if i want to use my generator to power my RV AC?
To power your RV air conditioner with a generator, you'll typically need a heavy-duty power cord rated for at least 30 amps, especially for most RV AC units. The cord should be at least 10-gauge to handle the high current safely. Ensure the generator's output matches the AC unit’s requirements, usually around 3,000 to 4,000 watts for starting power. Always check both the generator's specifications and your RV's electrical requirements before connecting.
How much freon in RV air conditioner?
Need to know a make and model, both of the chassis, and the RV body manufacturer. RVs come in many shapes and sizes, and will have different specs for their AC systems.
Can I use two 20A plugs from different 20A circuits to achieve one 30A plug for running the AC on my RV approx 2000 to 2500 watt load?
Depends on the wiring of your RV. Some RV's are 30 amp, some are 50 amp. The 50 amp RV will use two separate circuits. Using two separate circuits in this circumstance is disastrous. But you shouldn't need more than 20 amps for your AC. 2500 watts is only about 10 amps.
