RV Solar Panel System and Full Electric Setup in Ford Transit

This project was completed on a Ford Transit van whose owners plan to turn it into a fully functional mobile nail salon. Our task was to prepare a complete electrical foundation that would support all future equipment and ensure reliable operation anywhere. As part of this RV solar panel system and full electric setup, we designed and installed a safe, off-grid power solution tailored to their needs. In this review, we will show detailed photos and video of every system component, and explain exactly what was done.

RV Conversion Van with Solar Panels

We equipped van, installing two 200W units on the roof. In addition, we integrated a solar charger controller for stable energy management. Such RV solar panel systems provide independence from shore power. therefore, the mobile nail salon can operate anywhere. The RV solar power battery charger ensures consistent energy replenishment and maintains optimal battery performance throughout the day.

Electric Setup

For this project, we built a dedicated power box at the rear of the van. It houses the main electrical components and protects them from damage. In addition, the system ensures stable and safe operation on the road. The setup includes:

  • Two 200W batteries with 400W total capacity
  • 3000W inverter with built-in ATS
  • DC-DC alternator charger
  • 50A breaker, fuse, and charger box
  • Main power switch for full system control

Also, we installed 4 vent grills on the main box to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating of the electrical components.

Other Essential Electrical Components

We also completed the main electrical system and carefully routed wiring throughout the van interior. For convenience and system control, we installed the following components:

  • Shore power inlet (for connecting to external power)
  • Dimmable LED lights
  • Three interior power outlets
  • AC unit
  • Battery condition and charge monitor

The remaining interior installations will be completed by the owners, allowing them to customize the salon to their liking.
