The other day I pulled all the undercarriage 12 Volt wiring out to clean, inspect, repair, and then I reinstall it. But it's been bothering me that the wires aren't protected as I'd like. Originally tie wraps were used to keep the wires out of harm's way. ( I hadn't put the tie wraps in yet. ) I have some 3/8 fiber optic direct burial tubing that's used as a conduit underground. Thus the answer to my concerns. ( Any poly pipe could be used. ) So now the wires to the generator, holding tanks, and LP tank are protected. I was surprised that putting the wires in a flexible conduit wasn't at all hard. Just plan on spending about 4 hrs to do it.Bob Dunahugh78 Royale

Terry. I put an extra tube/conduit in for that just in case someday. I didn't put a string in. As this tubing has a slick coating on the inside so that fiber optics could be slid in. I got 5 wires in each of the 3 tubes without any problems. And each tube is 22 ft long. Bob Dunahugh
