1972 22ft Airstream Argosy

I need some electrical help, we’ve got old wire, new wire, a new air conditioner coming in. We be got a converter, an old fuse box(pic attached), but not distributor. So I’m wanting to convert everything into one sub panel that includes all that. I’m not sure what I need, here’s a picture from my original manual. Links would be appreciated.

Your trailer has 2 electrical systems. The 120 volt AC (shore power) system which has the circuit breakers that you attached the picture to.

You also have the 12 volt DC system which runs off the battery and the univolt which converts the 120 AC to 12 DC. The DC system will have a distribution and fuse panel located in an area near the battery.

I would upgrade the 12 volt DC system with a new converter and battery(s). The details of your system should be based on how you will be using your trailer.

So I do NOT have a panel for the DC system. I’ve looked.
