Parts Needed to Add Power to Trailer
Question:
I am converting a cargo trailer to a camper. I have experience with electricity, but I do not know what parts I need to do the job. I am starting from scratch , from the shore power inlet connection to the 12 converter. Are there any instructions along with suggested parts needed to complete the job? Thanks

Expert Reply:
To add power to your converted camper you will need a power inlet and a power converter with an AC/DC panel.
For these you can use the Epicord 30 Amp Twist Lock Power Inlet # 277-000137 along with the Progressive Dynamics 4000 Series Inteli-Power Converter w/ Charge Wizard and AC/DC Panel # PD4045KA.
You will need to add Romex wire from a local hardware store and run it from the inlet to the panel and the accessories you plan to put in your camper. I have added the instructions of the Progressive Dynamics Converter for you which is going to specify the process of installation.
