Remember, in a camper, even when you are connected to 110, all the lights are normally 12v. They are just running off the converter instead of the battery.

Old camper I have doesn 't have a converter. It is straight 110 volts right into the single 15 amp circuit breaker and out to the 110 stuff ( 2 lights and a few outlets ). Built in 1973. Camper is called Tag - A - Long.

14 handles anything in a camper including a water pump. Divide your circuits a little bit and run to a fuse block. Maybe everything on one side of the camper to one, the other to another. Water pump on it's own. The more they are divided the easier it is to trace down the problem if a fuse blows.

Hadn 't thought about fuses. I got no idea what size or type to use. What do ya say ?

Fuse according to the table in post #6. If you use #14 stranded wire, use a 15 amp fuse (maximum). The type would depend on the type of fuse block you can get. The current automotive spade lug types should be readily available.

Thanks for the info.
