About the video: In this video we do all of the AC and DC rough electrical wiring for a Bluebird Transit Bus Conversion called Our Wild Caravan. I break the wiring process down into hopefully simple steps for you to follow. Ask questions below in the comments and I will be sure to answer them. Hooray we got comments back!
Here is the wire size calculator: http://circuitwizard.bluesea.com/
Reliable and well priced Marine Grade Wire Options:
For your DC wire select the size and length you need: https://amzn.to/2TIvLne (12/2, 14/2 and 16/2 otherwise known as duplex)
And same for AC wires: https://amzn.to/3f5j79p (12/3 and 14/3 otherwise known as triplex)
Buy the flat wire, not the round wire.
A quick recap:
Use 12/3 for 20 amp AC outlets and fixtures.
Use 14/3 for 15 amp AC outlets and lights.
Use 12/2 or 14/2 for your DC fixtures and outlets (and occasionally 10/2) and 16/2 for your DC lights.
