What info is the need? If we had a list of the parts required, I am sure the husband could take it from there. A few years ago, I saw an electrical box that someone added to their gooseneck that I liked. It was mounted on under the gooseneck, with the hook-up to the generator, etc. on the outside and the outlets on the inside. |

Location: Galahad, AB, Canada | This was slightly scary, but fairly easy when we did it this winter. We went to our local RV place and bought the - darn, I don't know the word - its the electrical piece that has two sides, one goes on the outside of your RV for you to plug into, the other on the inside where you can wire everything. The cost was about $80 Canadian. We then very carefully considered where we would want this installed, and then using a drill and a small saw made a perfect circle in the aluminum skin on our trailer. (It's quite shocking when you realize how thin the aluminum is in trailers!) My husband then wired the inside portion of our electric gadget into a small breaker box, and then installed three plug-ins and some lights. If your husband has done wiring in the barn, this shouldn't be too tough. It is a bit scary cutting into your trailer, though! But having the electricty was worth the risk, now I can run a microwave or bar fridge, fan, heater, lights, toaster, etc! This one little thing totally changes the way you use your trailer. If you feel you can't do it, it would be worthwhile having an RV place install it for you, hopefully the costs wouldn't be too high since the actual time was minimal. |
