Electrical Modifications

Finally finished electrical modification that I started 2 years ago.
4 Go Power Lithium Batteries (2 banks of two)
2000 watt Xantrex Inverter
Blue Sky Entergy Solar Controller
Victron Entergy Monitor
Progressive Industries Surge Protector
Kenwood Stereo
JL Audio Amp, Speakers and Subwoofer

Very nice. You take pride in your work and it shows.
 
I'm curious about your bracket(s); are there two brackets or is it a single bracket but with two braces? Also, where did you get them?

Very nice setup!

Very detailed. I like the fact that the cable ties are attached to hooks. It eliminates the need for separate cable clamps and would appear to allow you to detach the bundle of cables from the wall without unscrewing or cutting.
 
As I said before, absolutely first rate installation, ETI, take note. :)

I'm a great fan of securing loose wiring. If you look in some hidden spaces in Escapes you'll often see wiring hanging like a suspension bridge. :nonono:

I use an alternative method of securing cable bundles. The tie wrap is reusable meaning that it releases without tools. This allows for the retro-fitting of additional wiring that some times can't be squeezed through existing cable bundles without cutting the tie wrap.

Yes, I know that you can insert a needle sharp point into tie wraps to release them but sometimes in tight sports you can also stab your finger. :eek:

This type of tie wrap has a little lever making it easy to release, open up and additional wires and cables.

Great idea! Cutting those ties is a pain. I hope ETI is paying attention to these posts. ;)
 
I use these reusable ties for lots of applications besides the trailer electric. Audio cables wraps, extension cords, emergency repair, etc. I once used two of them for a makeshift battery lifter on the old escape since I didn’t have tool and I was on the road

Will add some to the kit for the 21 NE. :thumb: I've used some of the hook and loop straps for cords, most recently for tying up excess strap material for fastening down the trailer cover so it doesn't lie on the ground and freeze. Also used the small, colored hook and loop tabs for labeling the electrical cables in the power center.
