Installation To complete this DIY project, you will also need: Buy on Amazon: Furrion 30 Amp AC Plug Inlet. 10/3 AWG Triplex Flat Wire (Buy on Amazon or BayMarineSupply). 1. Connect the 10/3 AWG Wire to the 30A Furrion Inlet Also refer to: 30A Furrion Shore Power Inlet User Manual (pdf) Remove 1½” of the outer jacket, strip off 5/8″ of colored insulation, then connect to the corresponding colored holes: Slide the rear cover over the terminals, seat the locking feet and turn clockwise to lock the 10/3 AWG wire into place: 2. Install the 30A Furrion Inlet into the Entry Box Feed the 10/3 AWG wire through the Furrion’s gasket & entry box, route the wire in a way to make a drip loop (scroll down for more info!): Align the gasket and inlet. Install the 4 screws provided with the Entry Box. Tighten to slightly compress the gasket, but no need to overtighten: Heads Up: Drip Loop! Drip loops are designed to prevents water ingress into a connector and mitigate the risk of corrosion, which is often the cause of a bad connection (more resistance = overheat = fire hazard). Indeed, water from condensation (or such) flows down the wire and drips off at the lowest point. You can control where the water drips and evacuate, as shown in this cross-section view: Our Entry Box features a “DRIP LOOP” tab that physically prevents from routing the 10/3 AWG wire without drip loop: 3. Remove The D-Pillar Cutout Cover This can be done on the driver or passenger side. Driver side is shown below. Grab an edge of the rubber cover: Pull down to completely remove the cover: 4. Route the Extension Cord Inside the Van Route the 10/3 AWG wire through the D-Pillar cutout: Grab and pull the wire from inside the van: 5. Install the Entry Box into the D-Pillar Start with the back or front side of the entry box: Press on the opposite edge (squeeze) and push up to snap into place: (To remove the entry box press on the back side first, then pull down.) That’s it! Electrical System Wiring For years we routed the charger/converter’s power cord through the doors or through the D-Pillar cutout… It worked OK, but the Entry Box is definitely more convenient! We keep our charger/converter plugged to the entry box extension cord, then connect to the shore when needed: Wiring Diagram Download Compatibility Van Models: Ford Transit (2015-Present).

Incompatibility (please check “Compatibility” section before ordering). ABOUT THIS PRODUCT Do It Yourself. We wanted a better shore power entry box for the Ford Transit, so we made one. This is an homemade product. Each part is individually 3D printed and assembled by us. This is not a mass-produced product. This is a crafted, hand-made product. Low Volume. We created this product for our own needs, to make just a few units. There is no way for us to ramp up the production and lower the price, unless we take it to injection molding manufacturing but that’s a whole another level we’re not considering at the moment.
