Enclosed trailer wiring

[Taylor_Mish]

Just purchased a new snowmobile trailer. I want to be able to plug it into my generator and run heater, etc. off of power and then be able to plug in at home... I assume I need an RV breaker panel and what not. Has anyone done this themselves? Or know of any wiring kits, website, etc?
Also I would need to run 110V along the walls for outlets and what not...
Thanks guys

Try Northern Tool. They have tons of trailer stuff......

obviously you wanna breaker panel for all your 110v outlets & other
circuits. then add the appropriate outlet for "shore" power (genset or
house connection) to the exterior of the trailer.

It's not that big of a trick.. just follow "home" rules for wire gauging, go GFI on your outlets and run a seperate ground path & spike to keep it safe... add an inverter and a deep cycle battery and have a couple nights worth of 12v lighting... any trailer dealer with a service department will have everything you need

Cool, thanks alot guys... Can't beleive I forgot about Northern Tool!

other than the exterior access/outlet lowes should have
just about everything you need...and come to think of it
even lowes will have the outlet (thing generator connection).

I'd run some 12v lighting, isolated from everything...so that you
can have lighting in the trailer when you need it, w/out shore power
or gen set connected.

Actually just bought a gen from lowes, I'll walk through there again... Isn't there some kinds of flourescent lighting that runs off of 12v? I have a deep-cycle interstate already that I can wire up.
