Thank you Sir! This is probably the best dumbed-down and well explained tutorial I've ever watched.

OMG!!!! THIS WAS SOO GOOD. JUST GOT MY RV. IM 64 YEAR OLD FEMALE AND TOTALLY BRAIN IMTIMADATION BLOCKAGE ABOUT THIS KIND OF THINGS. I WISH HE HAD ACTUAL CLASSES THAT COVERS EVERYTHING

im 62 guy, first rv, very confused but this guy answered some questions.

Wow, this is truly the first video I actually understood on my RV and electrical system. I was just about giving up until I saw the video. I’ll still use a professional but at least I don’t feel dumb. Excellent teaching skills, easy and very helpful analogies with a very “you can do it attitude”. Thank You so much!

I dunno why, but the series/parallel battery configuration animation made more sense than two semesters of calc based physics and lab at university. Thanks! This video is great. I just had to look up “dry camping” is all 😅

My good Sir, you're the first person to finally explain all things electrical in my RV. You are the ⚡Power Guru! ⚡

Can this guy do every instructional video on youtube please. I'm just now seeing this 4 years later. Why is this guy not in every commercial representing every major company. He's like the Sam Elliot of tutorial, diy and walkthrough videos. Why are we not paying this man for simply being alive. My god some tutorials that are so long or blisteringly pointless that lead to dead ends or learning absolutely. This guy is gold. He's everybodys favorite mentor Somebody please make a movie about this guy. Or clone him for christs sake. Amazing video I'm an expert now seriously. He makes it so simple and easy. Thank you so much.

This video should be required for everyone. I'm serious!!! I'm getting all my kids to watch this now. I appreciate your even toned explanations and the great content you put together. I have a friend who almost lost his life because he knew automotive power well and thought it would be the same with 220vAC, you can imagine what happened. Thanks for this, I'll be sharing as I hope others do as well. Regards...!

Tim, can't tell you how much I appreciate this. We're going into a full-time living RV situation. I'm adequate with construction and most things that would fit under DIY projects, my one glaring weakness being electrical. Have gained alot just from this intro on the subject.

Tim... Simply EXCELLENT! To the point, relevant and not a time-waster! Thanks for honoring your viewers by giving us the "skinny" without needless info!

I just started working around RVs. When customers ask about the different plugs, I tell them I don't know and I ask the manager. After watching your video, I now know the manager doesn't know either. Now I can give the customer the right information in an intelligent way. Thank you so much for breaking this down, I will watch this a couple of times but now I'm not in the dark. lol pardon the pun Please...MORE. You are great!

What an excellent tutorial on RV power systems. Clear, concise, humorous, with diagrams. Made it so clear. I learned what blew my DC system too - the old circuit breaker that most likely has to be replaced. This saved me a major expense and many hours of head scratching. Very much appreciated, thank you!

I am SO glad you instructed this video. So many folks think 220 volt is the same as 110 when they see the strange plugs.

THANK YOU! my brother is a mechanic and tried to explain vehicle electricity to me and it was like trying to understand a foreign language. You saved me a lot of trouble.

Wow. Best explanation ever. My wonderful electrician was over yesterday and explained about the extension cord length and not running too many amps while plugged into house power. But this demonstration tied all the pieces together and made it all make perfect sense. Thank you so much!

This guy is a good teacher. I will still need to watch this a few more times and save it for reference when what I gather fades away but I appreciate the very clear explanations. I was tired of not knowing anything about this!

I have searched everywhere and nothing better than this KZread video for explaining in plain language about RV wiring.

Great Info well Explained,looking forward to more of your videos.

just wanted to say thank you, you saved a camping trip for my family. My AC to DC converter went on my camper and I had a basic understanding of electricity and was able to problem solve this after watching your video. Thank you!

This Man,his explanations and his knowledge of everything he talks about is to be Commended! I'm by no means a rookie with electrical, AC or DC but after two weeks of trying to explaining to my wife after we had a fire in our RV how electrical works and why we couldn't "JUST HOOK IT UP AND PLUG IT IN!" This Man made my life once again liveable! Thank You and keep up the good work.GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND STAY SAFE! THANKFULLY YOURS Roy& Suzzan Green Aransas Pass Texas

Excellent video. I'm a 30 year tradesman and I learned a ton about RV electrical. Thank you.

Thank you! That was a great video introduction to electricity and RVs. It's definitely one I'll watch again.

This is the best explanation of my Class C electrical system I've ever seen or heard. Very well done. Thank you!

@Carolyn’s RV Life !I just started following you ! Lol and I agree he really makes it as simple as can be and understandable! Ty Steven of Rv set up ! Sadly I’ve watched so many videos and none have really broke it down to understand like this video and understanding basics makes learning other stuff so much faster cause you now can understand the main ways rvs are set up !

This guy is really smart, he knows what he's doing. I like the way he explained stuff, as well.

This was unbelievably helpful! I have acquired a camper that needs a lot of remodeling and don't know much about the electrical system. This helped so much. Thank you!!!!!!

Thank you so much for making something that seems so complicated much more understandable!! First time RVer here. Good to know the 12v and DC system better!!

Great explanation - from someone who has a healthy fear of electricity! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

I cannot thank you enough. Everyone with an RV should see this. I did exactly what you described in the beginning.

What a great summary!! Although familiar with both AC and DC power (conceptually) I did quite a bit of research when buying my travel trailer to better understand the electrical system. I wish I had found this first!! This summary covers most of the basics and could have kept me from having to watch multiple videos and reading multiple articles. They were still very helpful but this summary covers most of the basics all in one view. Well done!!

I watch lots of videos about how the electricityworks inRV but honesty this guy is the best one He explain very simple & right on point Thank u so much

I know this video is 5 years old, (as of this comment) but the info is timeless. In just a few minutes it helped me grasp things like inverter/converter. Thanks so much. Subscribed!

This is an excellent tutorial. This took a long time to perfect and I really appreciate having it to use for the RV forums I am on daily. I will be posting this video link often. There are so many rvers that just have no clue in the beginning

That was SUPER and very well done, Ilearned a lot, I will refer your video to my RV club for member to view at our next campout.

Great learning video. I watch it from time to time to help me "remember". Thank you!

Loved it. I'm getting close to knowing how to run my RV without blowing it up, Thanks, Tim.

Always learning something new! Electricity and propane scare me on my RV. I'm still learning all the volts and what pulls what amount of power. Thanks for sharing the Ac/DC breakdown!

Thank you for taking the time to make this video we have just bought an RV and had no idea that not just anyone can work on the wiring. So thank you-you saved me and my kid's life.

Thanks for the a/c d/c tutorial. I am an auto technician and am familiar with both types. This was as clear and concise as I've ever heard. Have saved it for reference to watch before I get started, so I don't get hurt because of forgetfulness.

Excellent video. Thank you for making it available.

I love that there's loads of information and more vids on RVs then sailboats but for the most part same thanks buddy be blessed stay healthy thank the sky for all the accessible help

Outstanding video! You solved some long standing mysteries for me very plainly in a matter of minutes. Great work, thank you.

Great video! This is one of the more informative and professional videos I've seen. Thanks for the great info.

The very best video for me who knew nothing about electrical....Many thanks

By far, the best video explaining electric in RVs that I’ve ever seen super thorough explains everything like you’re in kindergarten, which is awesome. I will be subscribing to your channel. It is perfect.

You’re the “Joe Friday” of the RV electrical world. Thank you

One of the most informative RV videos I've ever viewed. Thank you for sharing this information!

Thank you for the wonderful information. It cleared up a lot of confusion for me, as I am not too savvy about electricity, and I am much more confident about it now! Thanks! Shalom!

Excellent lecture and demonstration. Thank you very much for posting this. You have an EXCELLENT way of explaining technical topics. Well done! Much appreciated! Thank you!

this video was fantastic. thank you for making it easier to understand what I am getting into and what to expect from an RV electrical system.

Easy to understand, practical and educational. Complete explanations and directions. Great video.

Thank you for this video, very informative and an easily understood presentation. I am a new rv owner and did not realize just what the results were of 15 vs 30 outside plug useage.

Thank you so much for that video ! The best explanation I ever had about understanding the electricity of my RV !!!

Wow! Thank you for taking the time to make this video. You made this topic very simple and easy to understand!

Wow this is the first video i've seen that breaks it all the way down NICE!

I didn't want the video to end it was so good! Some quality education.

God bless you for this video and training. I think it's gonna help me more than I can say. I hope you have more classes- you are a great teacher.

You are a 10 as an instructor, very informative, thanks.

U R A Beast!!! Nobody could explain this any better!!! Excellent video 👍👍

Excellent video. Getting me going in the right direction to find my issue with my 5th wheel charging system. Thank you.

Some very useful information! I learned much of this in school but a good refresher is always good, thanks!

This is such an interesting and informative video! I learned a lot, even though a complete novice with electricity. I never could understand amps till you said it was like speed. Wow! Instantly got it! So grateful. I also thought I could run AC or fan system plugged into my house power. Was I wrong. I wish you would make another video explaining more. I need to do my own DIY Van build and would like to know how to lay down the electrical system. You are an excellent teacher and have a voice you can listen to for a long time. Also thanks for no background music. I have a 1997 Class C Tioga Montara that came with factory systems. There is a fuse box under hood for engine stuff. There is a fuse box under oven next to the converter. And there is a fuse box crammed into a TINY space next to two house batteries in a drop down box under the door entry way step. This is SO HARD to access it is ridiculous. I had to remove it once and redo whole thing due to a long story about buying wrong batteries, re-welding battery box to enlarge it, etc! Anyway, this fuse box needs to be relocated to a larger more accessible area close by. How to do it? No RV place seems to know or care. I need to modernize this whole area of fuses, and install a battery disconnect switch. Would love some guidance on who does this kind of work? I'm in California.

An excellent example of a well-done tutorial. Clear as a mountain lake and almost as entertaining. ;)

I know many others have commented on your instructing but I must also say well done! I learned a lot from this video! Thank you so much!

This is the most straight forward, concise and informative video on RV electricity I have encountered. I am grateful for all I learned and I thank you and congratulate you for producing this video. IT IS A MUST WATCH FOR ANYONE WITH AN RV.

Great basic description of an RV's electrical system!!

Thank you. New to RVing, this was a great and enjoyable video for me. Thank you again!

That was really well done, and easy to follow. Thanks for sharing.

Wow. As a newcomer to electrical engineering and circuitry, this explanation was extremely valuable! I bought a 2001 winnebago 31ft and I have trying to figure out why my generator wasn't working. Without being too invasive, I wanted to put my electromagnetic knowledge to the test but without any prior hands on experience, I was as useless as someone without any knowledge of electricity. You really helped me see and see the relevance of my studies in a real world situation and also help me further my non-invasive investigation of the generator so thank you two times!

Very helpful video. Clear and understandable. Great job explaining and giving safety warnings.

Amazing video. So detailed that I literally have no questions.

I found this very helpful and will watching again I am sure. While I don't plan to work on the electrical I do want a good understanding of the principles so I can't be taken advantage of by unethical people. I think most people are basically honest but sometimes people have set notions and want to convince you to do something that is not necessary. I want to know enough to know what I need and what I don't. This video will help me in that area.

Excellent vid. New operator to a RV and was wondering exactly what was using what kind of power and now i know. I am electrically inclined but this really helped. Thank you

Thanks for this video . I love the way you explain it . I have a 1960 travel trailer that I need to check or change all the wiring.

Thanks for your video it really helped me today, as i am having trouble with the RV Converter and the 2 volt batteries

Best explanation ever. On anything. Strong work!

You give the clearest explanation I've heard/seen so far. Do you have other videos? I need to understand my Xantrex inverter system. Thanks.

Thank you! I am really on my own with my vintage camper & this was most clear and understandable!

Thank you for the concise explanation of the RV electrical system.

The beginning drags on? To me, my life is worth a bit of extra time. Thanks for a great presentation ! ! !

Really enjoy your video’s. Lots to learn when it comes to RV systems. Cheers Rob

Very informative. Thank you! Your explanation was thorough and slow enough to understand.

So helpful. Thanks for the video.

THE BEST EXPLANATION .... Thank you so much !!!

Thank you for posting this video! Very helpful. Cheers!

Excellent! Just bough a RV and needed that information.

As an electrition this is really great, I will show it to Campers that have questions about power

Great video !!!! I learned a lot,thanks !!!

Oh, thank you for this. Everything else I've seen leaves me feeling more confused than ever. This is something I can understand.

You, Sir, are my hero. Perfect Layman's terminology.

My friend, I consider myself pretty well versed in the items you talked about but still learned several things and confirmed things I already knew. Your explanations, examples and pop ups were spot on. A friend of mi e just got an RV or rather , coach, as you call them and I started explaining things to him. He’s the first person Im sending this to. Great job, you have a new subscriber and Im betting many more. Best regards.

great work!!!! thanks for being clear and keeping it basic

Awesomely explained! Thank you!
