New load center, everything works!

Didn't have a lot of time today to do the whole deal, but tested it, and everything works. 15/15 mini-breaker has both of the circuits for the trailer, both the frig circuit and converter. Installed the 30/20 mini-breaker just now to make sure it will work. Wired the 30 amp side as a main breaker, reserving the 20 amp side for A/C. Hooked to a 15 amp extension cord, flipped the 30 amp breaker on, then the other two 15 amp ones, and success!

My only question now is when we hook up A/C to the 20 amp breaker, just wire it in like normal, and it will get power as long as the 30 amp main is on?

Thanks again for all the help, especially that mainah guy!

Just make sure the 20AMP breaker is also on!

The A/C line will always have power, as long as you are connected to shore power. The A/C's thermostat will control when it gets used.

Good looking job!

Yuk, yuk, yuk. Yeah, I know I need to have that breaker on! But thanks for the info, I wasn't sure but thought that was the deal.

More pics when I finish up. Got a few more hours of work ahead of me to get it done and "pretty."

Finished up the wiring today, everything works great! Thanks to everyone here that helped, I sure do appreciate it. By the way, I know where the A/C line is coming in the box and how I will run the lines inside. No need till I can scrape up 765 bucks for an A/C unit!

Great job. Your gonna love the detachable power cord. You might even be able to find some spray paint for plastics in a beige that would closely match your siding.

Yeah, I know, I am a bit picky about making things match, I drive Gary NUTS !!!! (BUT, somebody has to do it.)

Thanks Kitty! I already like that cord. I hadn't even thought about paint. I kinda like how it stands out...

Been a busy fellow between work and my toys. Finally got my classic boat out on the water today.

I still need to attach my new Bragman switch before we head out with the T-1550 Friday a.m. That shouldn't be too difficult. Plenty to do!

Take care and enjoy!

Frank

Thanks Mack. Took some time to get it the way I want it, but it's done. I have a few more things to do, but nothing critical. We're off and running Friday morning to western NYS for a few days camping, back home on Sunday. Looking forward to it!
