Crew Seat, Temp Flooring and more Wiring...


The van's coming on really well now. So far I've got up and running:-
Hot & cold running water plumbed into kitchen & bathroom, electric flushing toilet, shower, gas grill and gas hob.
Mains hook-up with consumer for site electrics or garage connections. This is connected via a contactor that allows use of the same circuits for both Mains and Inverted power Sources. It automatically switches over when mains electric is connected via the external mains socket.
Microwave, Kettle, Toaster and Water Heater running off solar panel rigged to 2 x 140ah Leisure batteries and mains inverter.
3 way fridge running on 12v, 240v mains and gas.
Eberspacher Diesel Air Heater for the cabin, Flat Screen TV/DVD, 3x USB Charge Points (front, middle & rear)
Bluetooth iPod connected ICE with 6 way Kenwood speakers.
LED low energy lighting. (12v)
Halogen Lighting. (12v)
Blue LED mood lighting. (12v)
Extra Crew Seat with travelling for 4 (seatbelt restrained)





Plumbed in the gas yesterday, so was able to box in the appliances
and faced of the undersides of my fabricated units to neaten them off.


Managed to blag a piece of 'scragg-end' wood effect vinyl when I bought the grey stuff for the kitchen walls. Wasn't quite wide or long enough for a proper fit, but it does the job great until I can get round (and afford) to fit the proper finished stuff.

Still need to box off the overhead cab-locker storage area and design some sort of table/sleeping area at the front.
Starting to look the job now though.



Main Control Panel above for the cabin electrics. I rewired the switch for my power
inverter to work remotely on the panel. It also illuminates when on so it shouldn't
be left on inadvertently.
