In this video we share an overview of the electrical set up of one of our off-grid conversions. This can give you an idea of the sort of items you may need and things to consider if building your own van conversion.
It is a good idea to work out how much electricity you may require on a typical day to help you size up your system. We have generated a handy tool which is available to download here: www.vanlifeconversions.co.uk/...

Great video guys, very useful and comprehensive, thank you so much. Do you have a wiring schema to buy from your website at all? I have a particular question about the DC-DC charger: do you only bring the 50mm2 red positive cable from the van's battery? The black is taken from the negative bus bar earthed to the chassis, right? And do you earth the copper gas pipes to that as well? What about the earth from the 3-core 230V sockets circuit and the AC-DC charger? Thanks a lot again!

Thank you so much for this video. I remember asking for a video like this. This confirms the researches I've been doing for my electrical instal. I have good knowledge about how to make my own now and I'm super grateful to the people sharing their knowledge on the internet. By the way, how did you learn everything about van build? Thank you to both of you!!

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your request, it is always nice to make videos on topics people prefer. We have taken multiple courses in various domains (electrics, plumbing, carpentry) and specific leisure vehicle courses, learnt from experienced tradespeople, learnt lots from RU-vid too and from our own experience. It's an ongoing process and usually there is more than one way of doing something, its about finding methods that work for you and your conversion. Thanks for your support!

What size cable did you use from the van battery to dc to dc charger?

Nicely done guys! Had you considered a manual changeover switch or transfer switch for your 240v sockets between EHU and Inverter? Would only need one set of sockets in this case. Keep up the great content and builds :D
