EMS installation on a 3850fl
I was wondering if anyone has had an EMS system installed on a 3850 fl. I am planning on purchasing a progressive 50 amp hard wired unit and I am trying to find the best place to install it. After searching the fifth wheel the only access point I can find is under the refrig and behind the fuse box using that connection as a break point.
Does anyone have any better spot then this or have pictures of their installation?

I removed my breaker panel/converter box and found plenty of room for mine. Easy installation. Just be sure power is completely OFF!
I just cut off about 18" of the incoming cable and used it to tie it in. Has worked great this way for almost 5 years.

Ours is installed under the refrigerator. Easy access. If you have a transfer switch in the basement, some have installed the EMS under the transfer switch. Good luck wherever you decide.

I do not have a transfer switch so I am pretty sure under the frig is the best spot for access to the main ac power.
Thanks
