Those blocks are Self Contained Power Connectors. The parts with the clear covers are for Romex cable and the parts with the blue covers are for round cables. They use them where they want to connect those cables and not use a junction box.

Does the yellow cable come from the power center or does the SO (black) cable?

The "FP" could simply mean that it's "prewired" for a fireplace.

Problem solved. The top half of the circuit breakers did not work. Was told it was the plug and cord. one side wasn’t working. Had the park send an electrician and that was the case. 1/2 of the 50 amp breaker was bad. All is good and working. Now I have to put everything back together. Thank you for all of your help in trying to troubleshoot.

Thanks for coming back and letting us know. Many do not and we never know the resolution.

I'm not sure if someone asked in an early post if you had a multimeter and knew how to use it. 5 minutes with a meter checking basic electrical circuits would have found the problem and got you back in operation in a jiffy.

I know electrical is not for everyone but my advice is... if anyone has any skills at all, a multimeter is a tool everyone should have as part of their arsenal. They are really easy to learn to use and can save hours of looking for a needle in a haystack.

Glad you got it back going but I still think your panels circuit breakers are mislabeled.

I agree 100%.

This is where the fireplace would be installed if equipped. The 120v outlet is a dedicated outlet just for the fireplace (notice that the bottom half of the receptacle is blank, can only plug 1 thing in) which makes the breaker labeled FP dedicated to just that outlet.

It's the same type of setup on my Sanibel (big sister to the Crusader).

Does anyone notice the top breaker looks like a GFI breaker? I agree with wmtire, your label doesn't match the breakers in the panel.
