exterior 110v outlet?

[Kep]

Well my 1975 28' leGrande does not have an outside 110v receptacle. The OEM manual shows that it should have one. I do not see anywhere it has been removed. The diagram shows it as the last outlet on the string and on the passenger side just after the fridge but before the twin bed. I sure do want one but don't see any simple way to provide for one!

So has anyone added an exterior 110v outlet?
How did you accomplish it?
Pictures?
Suggestions?

I see that all the outlets are on a 15amp GFI breaker so that's good. I was thinking of looking at the fridge wiring but that looks like it is not very accessible unless I remove the fridge. I would prefer something that looks OEM or possibly something hidden or can be accessed through the exterior fridge vent cover.

Our exterior outlet is in the passenger side rear lower storage compartment. I remember finding it by accident when I had an occasion to get real low and see the inside of that compartment.

I think the 1975 models only have that one compartment? (I only have a soft copy of a 1975 brochure to reference...) Did you check there?

Not yet but I will now.

Not sure how much your into big changes, but this it was pretty easy to add a fresh dedicated outlook to my utility box since I was building a replacement. I surfaced mounted the box to make it a bit easier, and I had a free breaker slot in the breaker panel that I could just deticate to this unit. On a 30P this is on the port / left side of the trailer on the rear. 12/2 wire is unnecessary, but since the breaker was 20A, I wired for 20, but only used a 15A plug since that is what I had. Be mindful of water and use a GFI plug or breaker since this could easily get wet.

Well I found a 110v outlet mounted inside the curbside belly compartment. It is mounted up high on the frame settee. It was just a quirk that I found it. I was checking the condition of the underside of the floor where the rear bathroom shower is directly above.

I did not find anything in the compartment under the twin bed. Well I did find a compartment light just inside the compartment door on my left and it even works.

What is that blue cable? Looks like Ethernet.

It is .... I have a CAT6 uplink to my home network with an antenna in the camper. I use all Unifi stuff these days and it has provided WiFi all summer. Someday I hope to build a road capable network so I can stream a rear facing camera to my iPad mini in the cab, but that is several projects away. I teach IT as my day job, so I can’t help myself sometimes.
