If you are signed up for 'Electric Only' at the Fathers Day Festival at Grass Valley this year, make sure your RV will NOT trip a GFCI circuit. You should test your rig at home before you leave. If it trips the GFCI circuit that you are plugged in to, you should have an electrician or your dealer check the unit. The CBA will not be responsible for RVs that will not hold a GFCI circuit. Every year there are 4 or 5 rigs that have this problem. Don't know what a GFCI circuit is? Send us an e-mail and we'll get back to you.
