Ron, that thought had crossed my mind, LOL. Hoping my building skills will help keeping the weight as low as I can, shooting for 2000 lbs,

Haha, of course you are toying with that idea. I would expect nothing less from you!

Terry,
The answer may be obvious, but I would like to hear your explanation.
What is the reason for installing "new" instead of reusing any of the existing wires?
Thanks!

Cw, mainly because as a small 1977 trailer this really didn't have much wiring in it, it was very basic, 2 110 light bulbs, refrigerator, that was it, 12 volt was 3 lights and water pump, no converter ect. And I don't like how they ran the wires for the lights, so the easiest is to just start from scratch. I've designed several rv electrical systems in the past and this will be able to be self sustaining, hopefully, LOL. We're putting in a microwave, several 110 plugs, refrigerator, no ac. When completely done there will be a 2000 watt pure sine inverter wired to a transfer switch. Plus all the other modern rv system. Oh and 400 watts of solar, MPPT charge controller and a plug in for more if needed
