This video will show you, start-to-finish, how we upgraded an existing electrical system in a 50A 5th Wheel Motorhome RV and put TWELVE solar panels on the roof.

In this DIY 50A RV electrical install, we cover a wide range of topics, so we have included chapters at the bottom of this description if you need to find a specific part of the install.

This comprehensive tutorial will cover a tabletop view of wiring a Victron Lynx Distributor, the DC wiring of the Victron MultiPlus 2x120, wiring two DC DC chargers, wiring the SolarSmart Charge Controller, wiring the 24|12 70A Converter, Wiring the Solar Isolator, Wiring the AC side of the MultiPlus, wiring a splice kit, and wiring the Cerbo GX. Once moved into the camper, we complete the install by wiring the splice kit, the battery bank relocation kit, the alternator charger, the two 270aH Battleborn GC3 Batteries to create a 24V system, installing 12 200W panels for a total of 2400W of solar, and finally, the programming and testing of each component via the GX Touch 70 and the Victron Connect App.
