Electrical Planned

Now that the wall framing is complete, the electrical was planned.  As always, DC and AC electrical complicates the plan.  For the Gypsy wagon, we are planning:

  • All lights to be run on DC.  Apparently you can use regular recepticles with DC light bulbs.  I have a swag lamp over the dining room table, two wall sconces above the head of the beds, a light above the kitchen countertop, and a outside porch light.
  • There are two DC outlets with USB chargers near each bed.  
  • AC outlets will available at the dining room table, for the Air Conditioner, one embedded in the kitchen counter, and one in three of the four OUTSIDE corners.  
  • On the porch, there will be a battery box outside.
  • Inside a bench, there will be a inverter/switch unit, the DC fuse box, and the AC breaker box. 
The horizontal "shelves" above the wheels were the convenient place to run electrical wires from the front to the back of the gypsy wagon.

The bench was designed and built for the electrical apparatus.
