Installing an outlet on the outside of your trailer allows you to work inside with the doors shut. This can be especially important during cold weather uses while ice fishing.

This is the best explained but also simple video!! Love it!! Keeping it simple and showing everything needed. I just ordered the Noco plug for my trailers going to cut the inside female end off and make one of these junction but with a switch

Merry Christmas Ross. That plug would be great for connecting shore power to a boats battery maintainers , or for downrigger plug in power.

🤔😂.. 🤷‍♂️ but I don’t recall motels having outdoor outlets for guest? Do they? Wouldn’t their parking lots be full with rv’s & campers 😳🤷‍♂️ … but if they do 👍 can’t wait for part two!!! Installation of solar panels on the roof so all your stuff will be charging & charged when you get to your destination 😁😜 👍✌🏻 … merry Christmas 🎄🎁 keep the vids coming

When you do what I do you... you learn the places that do

Great Video as Always

Did you ground the 4x4 box or just the outlet?

@miracletimberlake9202 Год назад

thank you

@cbow7961 Год назад

Would you please provide the link to the Leviton you purchased? I haven't found one with the plug-in already in it like you used. Thank you!

@Bigwaterfishing Год назад

Long long time ago....search on Amazon under leviton was easy to find

@traedrose7963 Год назад

Just curious. Why didn't you install a breaker? I know that the power cord you are plugging from is connected to a breaker, but any downsides to not having a breaker on the trailer side? Thank you for the video and your time.

@Bigwaterfishing Год назад

I'm no electrician....but the goal was to just have a way to keep the trailer locked and get power inside...really no different than if we had the door open and had the same cord going in. You could use a outlet like you find in bathrooms instead of what I did, but my electrician buddies said they didn't recommend it

@traedrose7963 Год назад

@@Bigwaterfishing they didn’t recommend a GFCI outlet? Curious why, being it’s an added safety. Anyway, thanks again!

@billkay4571 7 месяцев назад

Do you have the levitron part numbers for what you used on this project? What gauge wire did you use?

@Bigwaterfishing 7 месяцев назад

I dont....but easy search on Amazon. Match wires to voltage being used with plug, etc. When in doubt go up a size

@loganbrown2730 3 месяца назад

Is there a way to do this to have multiple outlets in the trailer?

@Bigwaterfishing 3 месяца назад

You could wire it just like you would a garage but need to be careful about daisy chaining to far with to many just like you would need to In a garage

@miracletimberlake9202 Год назад

Would someone tell me exactly the name of everything, and where to get. I would like to do it myself

@bradleybergstrom8036 2 года назад

What size hole saw did you use?

@ericmckinley7015 Год назад

Glad you flipped it! Lol

@dkollander 2 года назад

Wrap some electrical tape around the entire outlet, cover all the screws that you could attach wires to....a couple passes with the tape. Because short circuits suck!
