I don't understand why...you are supposed to have a main fuse & disconnect box where service enters the coach,then, I ran elec. up,thru the floor to a converter,that had breakers & the 12/2 with ground was distributed throughout the coach,can't imagine why you would want to run it back there,but,the tunnel might be a posibility |

"the back of my Eagle at the tag on the driver side" Through the years, we've stayed at more campgrounds that didn't "conform" to the usual layout you'd expect to find.... I.E.: The power pole is not always where you would expect to find it. At many of the county, state, and private campgrounds, the power pole was at the rear, side, or front, and even on the passenger side (if you backed in)... You may be better off, simply having the cord out the mid-side, rather than the rear. (at least, that's what I had planned) Then, you'd have a better chance of reaching the PP with a standard 30' shore-line. |

Just because I'm a code freak NEC Article 551-46(e) Location. The point of entrance of a power-supply assembly shall be located within 15 feet of the rear, on the left (road) side or at the rear, left of the longtitudinal center of the vehicle, within 18 inches of the outside wall.

And because I'm just a freak: "shall be located within 15 feet of the rear" On a 40' coach, that's damn near mid-point, ehh? (jeeesh) |
