Chinook Renovation

Solar installation

• Ran two 6 AWG wires from the Progressive Dynamics 4645 charger toward the battery compartment.

• Pulled all the wiring from the battery compartment and cleaned up the silicone.

• Pulled all the wiring going through the floor of the Chinook (solar and LVD) which left a pinky-sized hole in the floor. My plan is to enlarge the hole to 1 ½ inch. I removed the 50A fuse under the chassis (in the white box).

• Installed the two solar panels and wired each with 10 AWG to the combiner box, and attached the duplex 6/2 wire that goes down to the controller.

• Routed the cellular booster antenna wiring through the combiner box.
