Hi looking for anyone with experience wiring up a Van for a friend. She’s looking for help “wire to my converter using a cut off extension cord”.
Wasn’t able to upload pics or video but can share directly. Thanks so much!!
i’m not a genius but i think she needs to start with the following:
name and link to the converter.
what is it converting? DC current to AC current?
what appliances is she running and what are their Amp ratings.
also she will want to buy some electrical wire of some gauge that suits the Amps. i can’t imagine it will be safe to wire it with a cut off extension cord. this is a fire hazard imho.

Hi, I am an electrical engineer and just finished building my sprinter camper van. I learned a lot about RV and boat mobile electrical systems but it is not my profession.
I would be happy to have a discussion and help out with ideas and some resources for your friend’s project.
I’m currently on my first road trip and will return next weekend, 3/1.
