Converter Circuit Layout / Conserving Battery

USWildflowers

I hadn't been able to find a diagram with the breaker / fuse usage for the WFCO converter on the T@b, so I did a little plug-n-play to find out what was connected to each. I don't know how consistently these are connected (I would thing the factory would try to be pretty consistent), but here's what I've found on my 2015 T@b S with 12-volt refrigerator (I don't have the 3-way); possibly incomplete.

AC Breaker 1 30Amp Main
AC Breaker 2 15Amp All electrical outlets except Air Cond.
AC Breaker 3 20Amp Air Conditioner outlets (ceiling, not heat pump)
AC Breaker 5 20Amp Alde electric heat

DC Fuse 1 10Amp Roof Vent Fan
DC Fuse 2 10Amp Refrigerator
DC Fuse 3 10Amp All lights, entertainment center, Television
DC Fuse 4 10Amp Water Pump, Propane/CO detector
DC Fuse 5 20Amp Alde DC (circulation pump & ?)
DC Fuse 6 30Amp Battery Charger
DC Fuse 7 40Amp Reverse Battery Protection

Maybe everyone already has this info, but it may be helpful if parts of your service stops working. It also may be handy if you want to reduce the power drain while boondocking. For example, if you don't need lights or refrigerator, but want to cook and have propane-powered hot water or heat, you could pull DC fuses 2 and 3, saving the small drain from the courtesy light in the bathroom and the radio/television (and whatever may be pulled by the refrigerator circuitry when "off") but still have the Alde, water pump, and detectors operational.

Attached is a copy of the page I'm keeping in my T@b.

Thank you so much for all the work and posting the picture. I am going to label it just like you did.

Nice work and thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the post. That was something on my list of things to do. I would also like to have a wiring diagram of the full electrical system as that is something that interests me. I am planning on installing a main 12 V DC disconnect switch and am deciding on whether to place at the battery or inside by the converter. It will, of course, depend on how things are wired. I will also ensure that I have a good fuse spares kit with me when I am on the road.

Yeah, I'd like a full wiring diagram as well. An interior battery disconnect switch would be nice, but I haven't decided if it's worth the effort for me.
