Matt, Ken, Mike,

Here's what I think I understand.

Reference: http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/avion-circuit-breaker-panel/p46677-double-trouble-cb-pane.html

The number on the single handled breaker is 40. It is the Main breaker as labeled.

Subsequent to this photo I removed the stickers above the C/B's put Dymo labels under them

From left to right they are:

1) Water Heater
2) Rear Air Conditioner
3 & 4) Main (Dual C/B)
5) Wall Plugs
6) Front Air Conditioner

Reference: http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/member-galleries/p41975-avion-120vac-schematic.htm

On the schematic in the box that represents the Load Center there are three rows:

Row 1) A rectangle with five black dots and connecting white wires. From left to right the white wires connect to:

A/C - Front A/C
A/C - Rear A/C
Water heater
Power cable plug
Wall plugs

I understand this to be the Neutral.

Row 2) Two empty rectangles

I understand these to be the power busses.

Row 3) A row of black dots grouped in twos from left to right which are connected to black wires connecting to:

Water Heater
Rear A/C

Black wire from the Power Cable
Red wire from the Power Cable

Wall Plugs
Front A/C

The middle two are power input from the Power Cable or Onan when the Power Cable is plugged into the 50 AMP RECEPTACLE in the CORD
STORAGE BOX.

The Black wire from the Power Cable supplies 120vac to the left breaker of the Dual C/B. That side of the Dual C/B supplies up to 20
amps of 120vac to the Water Heater and Rear A/C.

The Red wire from the Power Cable supplies 120vac to the right breaker of the Dual C/B. That side of the Dual C/B supplies up to 20
amps of 120vac to the Wall Plugs and Front A/C.

Regards,
Rob M.
