Hi
I had an auto electrician install my EBC and run a separate lead to my tow bar with a Andersen plug to connect with my camper trailer to power the fridge. Cable used is a 6 B&S (74amp rating). I have a TJM compressor which I keep in the drawers in the back of the tub. According to the specs on the compressor maximum currant draw is 45amps, which I would assume is on start up then drops back a bit.
What I am thinking of doing is cutting off the battery croc clips of the compressor and fitting a 50 amp Andersen plug , so that I can run the unit from the Andersen output on the tow bar. Can you see any problems that I may not have thought about ?
I have seen some people mounting the compressor either behind the seats or under the side wings (enclosed space) of a tub drawer system. After pumping up 6 tyres the compressor unit get fairly hot, would there not be a potential fire risk in doing this ?
Your thoughts and comments are much appreciated
