Anchorage RV Electrical installer

We due to arrive in Anchorage, AK in 3-4 days. My replacement Magnum Energy Inverter/charger should be there when we arrive. I need an RV electrical installer to hook it up for me. Anyone know of anybody there who could help?

Jim - from a previous thread of yours, I know this is about swapping a ME 2012 with another ME 2012.

The swap is actually really simple. In fact so simple that even I can do it (and have done), and I am not very good with anything electrical once it gets a little bit tricky.

What I am really trying to say is that you don't necessarily need an electrician for that job. Any person with reasonable maintenance skills can do this easyly, because nothing needs changing. It's a case of taking a small number of wires off the old inverter terminals, and then reconnect them the identical places on the new inverter. Having an electrician do it would be nice, but I don't think it's a "must".

When my old inverter burned down, there was an RV electrician in our camp. He altered a few wires so we have full AC power when on shore power service or with our genset. And I'm going to have another RV elec trician on hand to reverse that procedure. These inverters don't tolerate wiring errors, and I'm not interested in buying yet another one so I can practise wiring.
