The 63 Overlander is coming together quite nicely, and it's
time I planned for the electrical system rebuild. Right now I've got a "non"
converter 12v/110v original system with 2 circuit breaker box (missing
breakers), no light fixtures worth saving or repairing, no original fan/vents,
basically a clean slate, except for the wiring in the walls.
I'm planning (subject to change) on replacing all light
fixtures with 12v only, retaining 110v outlets in kitchen and bath, adding 12v
Fantastic to bath ceiling, and replacing main 110v power cable.
Any suggestions on what converter to use? What about the
Magnatek 6300 load center, that includes circuit breakers and fuses for the
110/12v? Or should I retain the original breaker box and only add a converter? I
would need to add a 110v outlet to plug it into, wouldn't I?
And what about the 110v wiring to the fixtures that will no
longer use any 110v? Simply wire nut them off, or shall I "un-wire" them back at
the circuit breaker? Do the 110v outlets in kitchen and bath feed off of a
"main" cable?
Lot of questions.
