New electrical service

We've had the trailer plugged into a long extension cord all this time.  Not ideal, but it let us run the lights, etc. 

Since the trailer will likely be parked in the hangar every winter, we thought it would be good to have a more "permanent" electrical solution!

(This is mostly Duane's handywork, of course. I just handed him stuff....)

New small panel right next to the trailer.




Duane ran conduit all the way across the hangar to the main electrical panel.



Then we measured out 4 pieces of wire - about 120' each to pull thru the conduit.



Kindof hard to see, but the 4 wires pulled pretty easy thru the long and curvy conduit!



Panel finished!


And trailer plugged in!!  (I've actually ordered a brand new beefy cord since this one is original and a bit "tired" looking).

  1. Massive amount of effort for a new box but worth the trouble for its own plug. MOM
