RV Electrical

Following the power from source to fixture

Power in a rig moves in a line: it enters from a source (shore, generator, or solar), fills storage (your batteries), converts between 12-volt and 120-volt as needed, then runs everything from the reading lights to the fridge. These five categories track that path.

• Batteries & Charging: house and starting batteries, chargers and maintainers, plus battery boxes and disconnects.
• Converters & Inverters: power converters, pure sine inverters, inverter/chargers, and transfer switches.
• Power Cords & Electrical: shore cords and adapters, surge protectors, fuses and breakers, outlets, and wiring.
• RV Lighting: interior LEDs, porch and exterior lights, task lights, and replacement bulbs.
• Solar Power: solar panels and kits, charge controllers, and the mounts that hold them to the roof.

Chasing a dead circuit? Trace it back to the side it lives on, house or shore, and the right category usually falls out. Battery upgrades and solar tend to arrive together, so it pays to plan both at once.
