Setup Instructions

  1. Inspect the Power Pedestal: Before connecting, visually inspect the RV power pedestal for any visible damage or signs of wear.
  2. Connect the Surge Protector: Plug the Kohree RV Surge Protector directly into the 50A NEMA 14-50R power outlet on the RV power pedestal. Ensure a firm and secure connection.
  3. Check the Display: Once plugged in, the LED display on the surge protector will light up and perform a circuit analysis. Observe the display for any error codes (refer to the Troubleshooting section for details).
  4. Connect Your RV: If the display shows "NORMAL CIRCUITRY" or a normal display of all screen items, indicating a safe connection, plug your RV's 50A power cord into the receptacle on the Kohree RV Surge Protector.
  5. Secure the Waterproof Cover: Ensure the extra-large waterproof cover is properly closed over the connections to protect against environmental elements.

Operating the Device

The Kohree RV Surge Protector features a real-time LED display that provides critical electrical information. Understanding these readings is key to monitoring your RV's power supply.

  • Voltage (V): Displays the incoming voltage from the power source. Ensure this remains within the safe operating range of 104V-132V.
  • Current (A): Shows the real-time current (amperage) being drawn by your RV.
  • Kilowatt-hour (KWH): Tracks the total energy consumption over time. This can be useful for monitoring usage during your stay.
  • Circuit Analysis: The display also indicates the status of the circuit, providing immediate feedback on wiring conditions.
