I felt a little better this morning so I didn’t have any excuse to slack off. I finished up the galley drawers we’d been working on and with Sara’s help I installed the final trim piece on the refrigerator cabinet. I also did a bit of work on the furring strips that will hold the wardrobe together.
Then UPS came! She brought the AC power panel I ordered last week so I can finally get back to working on the electrical system.
The panel saves me from having to put together a bunch of individual pieces to make a circuit box.
The box will fit nicely in the electrical cabinet, but it needed some modification as the unit needs to go where I had already had some other wires running. NBD. Just some time to cut/drill different holes for everything to get rerouted.
With the box modified, it was time to start some wiring. As I’ve said before, it is not that hard, but it is time consuming to measure, cut, crimp, heat, attach all the wires. Then if/when something doesn’t work quite right it is a process of back-tracking to see which step I screwed up! Sometimes I also make annoying mistakes like wiring something up and then realizing that I needed to put the wire through a particular hole first. It is so annoying to spend the time getting something all set and then realizing that I forgot to put the access panel on the wire before wiring it to the inverter!
Finally I have it all done. Tomorrow I will get to see if I’ve screwed anything up too much!
