The two 110 v outlets in the kitchen area won't work. The circuit breaker tests OK. One other outlet and two lights on the same circuit work. I have continuity between the ground terminal in the electrical panel and the ground in the outlets but not between the black or white wires ends in the electrical panel and the wire terminals in the outlets. I believe the second kitchen outlet is fed directly from the first. Neither the circuit breaker or the outlets are GFI equipped.
Suggestion. Draw it out on paper,it will be easier to get a picture of where to look.It is not unussual to have the kitchen isolated from other circuits due to the potential use of various appliances. The only outlet not on the inverter would be the one in question(kitchen). So, the layout should be, everything locationnot expected to exceed inverter capacity is dedicated to inverterpower supply.< one Two> Any receptacle that may be subjected toa load outside of inverter limits should be supplied by Generator or shore power. The microwave runs on gen or shore, not inverter.because of available Wattageproduced by rhefirst two.. So, hopefully your art and this info is helpful. _ Enjoy your unitand Good luck. -Ned-
Testimonial: "This circuit coming off of the shore power circuit breaker has the two kitchen outlets, another outlet in the slide-out part on the other side of the trailer and two 110v overhead lights on it. The two lights and the slide-out outlet work but the two kitchen outlets do not. The 12v system from the power converter works fine. There is no inverter system in this unit."
Testimonial: "Excel had no longer had a wiring diagram available for my unit. After tracing the wiring as far as I could without finding the problem I finally just rewired the circuit to the two kitchen outlets. There was also an outside outlet on the same circuit as the kitchen outlets. Rewiring was a pain but the only alternative I had. I also now have the three outlets ground fault interruptor protected. They were not before."

Black will normaly go to the breaker on a 110 circuit white is ground and the bare is secoundary ground..You should see this with the cover removed. BE VERY CAREFULL AS THERE IS POWER INSIDE THE BOX AT ALL TIMES AND A WRONG MOVE COULD SEND YOU TO THE UNDERTAKER,EVEN IF YOU TURN OFF THE MAIN BREAKER THERE IS STILL POWER COMING INTO THE BOX THAT COULD KILL YOU...If i were you i might call a friend ta help.
SOURCE: GFI 'shorted'
load neutral connects to the neutral binding screw on the GFI, do NOT connect the load neutral to the neutral bar.
SOURCE: correct wiring for delta wired motor
check & confirm the following
1. delta connection of the motor is done properly, with the combination of different windings.
2. check the quality of the 3 pole mcb or check with other one.

SOURCE: i bought a new GE 20 amp GFCI circuit breaker and
You can buy an inexpensive GFCI tester for as little as $10-$12. A better one with several mv settings will cost you a bit more. This way you can test this circuit and even GFCI receptacles. Then you'll know for sure if your breaker is working.

The breaker must engage TWO bus bars in the panel, in addition to the a neutral connection. If the breaker is aligned to engage only one of the bus bars, only one of the terminals will be powered at the breaker terminal screw (most likely the top).
Some electrical panels have covers that have numbers and spaces stamped for circuit breakers at the bottom; when in reality, there is no bus bar to connect. Make sure you are not attempting to install into a space that lacks both bus bars.
If unable to get 240 volts out of the breaker without the load wires connected, there may be an issue internally with it. If after connecting the load wires, one side fails again, it may be detecting a ground fault or an over current situation but due to an internal failure is unable to trip both poles of the breaker. This breaker should be replaced.
Wiring diagrams are not available as the manufactures to not publish them. There will be a series of circuit breakers that control the slide, jacks and awning. The circuit breakers are small rectangle 12v breakers with a terminal stud on each end. Some are automatic reset and others have a small black button on the side that must be reset. On a motor coach you will find these in a storage compartment and they probably will not be labeled. On travel trailers they will be located near the front of the trailer and often times will be linked together with a copper bus bar. On 5th wheels they will be located in the front storage compartment close to the battery box. Follow the positive lead from the battery back and you should locate them relatively easy. Next, make sure the nuts on the terminals are tight and using a test light make sure that you have power to each terminal on each circuit breaker. If you do not have power to the output side of the breaker then it is bad and will need to be replaced. They are amp rated so make sure you replace the breaker with the proper amp rating. I.e, 30amp or 40amp. In some rare cases the inline circuit breaker for the jacks is relatively close to the jack behind where the switch is mounted.
