Beginning to look at options for a monitor panel for my bus. I am running a Xantrex SW4024 and have a remote panel for it but still need a monitor for the water, black, gray, propane and a circuit breaker board. Anyone have any suggestions? It doesn't need to look like a flightdeck, perhaps putting all the breakers in the bays and just have tank monitors in the living area.... |

Check the RV junk yards in Seattle? |

"perhaps putting all the breakers in the bays "
Simple yet practical was on the older Wanderlodges.
The house basement style panel was located at the rear of a clothes locker.
Out of sight , but EZ to get to in the rain.
They also used a big plug & 2 sockets to select gen or shore power.

I'm curious as to why one would want to access their breakers ('cept for the main) anywhere but inside. I know I don't like that location at my house (outside); I'd much rather have them inside where they are easy and quick to get to. I'm planning on mounting my subpanel inside. Where do most people mount their breaker panels? |

Can't speak for anyone else, but we put our panels inside the linen closet in the bathroom. I like to be able to get at them without going outside. So far, the only time I have had to access them is when I wanted to shut down a circuit I was working on, but it is still handier inside. Just "our way" YMMV. Jack |
