Outlets on CB Panel

Yahoo Message Number: 76981
Hi Coach Owners,

Please find a photo of the subject in the photos section.
This addition was covered in a recent motor home magazine.
The outlets are rated at 20 amps and were reworked to remove the mounting ears so the back sides have a smaller volume.
Each outlet was wired with 12 gauge multi-strand wire to each of the circuit breakers used for the roof air conditioners. Multi-strand 12 gauge wire was also used for neutral and ground connections.
Note the 3 test points at the bottom center of the CB panel which are used to monitor voltage, frequency and waveshape on each leg.
I use the added outlets to power car battery charger/starters, power to other coaches, pumps, mostly high amperage external equipment. These outlets provide additional power to augment the sole GFI outlet which is dasey chained to eight or more outlets.
