Distribution

From here to there...


The project has three power sources to distribute, generator power, inverter power and 12 volt power.  Everything is treated in a fairly commercial/industrial way with conduit and lots of fuses.

AC Distribution

Three separate panels handle 110V distribution for generator-only, inverter-only and mixed loads.  Get all the details here.

Rooftop

Three separate 3/4" conduits connect the rear equipment area with the attic area over the cab, where most operator controls reside.

Under-carriage

There are two main connections running under the body.  These connections run through Seal-Tite, flexible, moisture-proof conduit.

The first run is from the generator back to the main distribution panel in the rear.

The second run is the interconnection of the 12 volt systems of the vehicle and the grooming batteries.

Surface Mount Raceway

The outlets and their supply in the grooming area use the Wiremold On-Wall PVC system.  This is a fairly easy to work with system and looks OK, as nice as any surface-mounted system can.  As PVC, it is good for the humid workspace.  Wiremold contact information:
