- In this video, I take you through a step-by-step process of wiring up a tiny house on wheels. I have built this tiny house for under $3K and I want others to be inspired to do that same!

Thank you thank you THANK YOU!!! The electrical aspect of tiny building has always scared me but this is so straight forward!
I’m glad it helped! Be sure to subscribe for more content :)
This build has been incredibly inspirational for my tiny house build. The accessibility, cheap cost, and simple, single pitch roof design are exactly the design points I love about your build.
Thanks! that really means a lot!
THANK YOU so much!! I've been trying to find this information everywhere. I've seen way too many videos that don't show how to safely run a 30 amp outlet with an 8 gage wire to power both legs of the panel system. You are honestly the best for going into detail and explaining the jump wire. A sincere thank you from a less tired and stressed tiny house builder:)
Glad to be of help!
This seems so doable, this is so nice to see, I want to build my own tiny soon, and it's looking so nice already
This is great. Very simple and doable. Thank you.
Thank you man cuz I have been watching videos on tiny house electric and none of them tell you how to do it step by step
Glad I could be of help. Best of luck on your project!
excited to see it finished one day, subscribed!
right on, thanks!
Thank you... I needed that ✌
I'm loving this project
I’m glad :)
Good explanation 👏👏👏
just for future knowledge the A/C unit should be mounted high up heat rises cold falls when you have it low it is harder to keep it cool or cold , i know this has been built for 3 years at this point but in case anyone watch;s for future inspiration
Actually, your wiring is pretty good. Might I offer a suggestion for your next project? Next time you should look into a 12 volt system and add power inverters for a residential fridge. 30 amps could be used for the ac unit and microwave. The rest should be led lighting which is affordable and of course doesn’t draw much power at all. You can always use solar panels to recharge the batteries. Propane for a propane stove. Easier sell. Screw it, I’ll come help you lol
Thank yo. Come on and help me! Bring something to grill :)
Our Simple Story yes some ribs and t-bones
Our Simple Story the tiny home is looking great though man. Good job!
Too funny.. I needed to laugh...& to make up my mind how the heck to get out of WI to TN & find a tiny house, RV, or container home that's under 20k!! Peace & quiet, no lofts with ladders, a washer & dryer stacked, & fireplace are musts... Been looking at options a long time I'm ready for therapy!!!
Looking good. Be cautious with that many outlets on a circuit, that is a bit of draw.
Only thing I would do differently is have the breaker box up higher. Gives you easier access and easier to work on.
Thanks for the feedback!
When I see the size of the smaller campers, and compare them to this, the $3k goal seems very high value. The lower end campers don't have very long life expectancy, so if you get a few years out of this, it's still a decent deal.
Just a suggestion if you use gfci breakers you will protect the entire circuit1
I’m starting a tiny house from a trailer with 3 walls already up. I understand the wiring but the box with the circuits I’m still ifyify on. Show how to wire im this please
One thing GFCI should be the first outlet in a branch and then no other GFCI after it. They will fight each other.
that's the thing you don't need some authority inspecting your stuff people will do what they can to do things safe what's good to have is some ideas and suggestions and things that we can learn from so that we can build things safe
And really we have that.
Do you have a link for the breakers & box you used ?
dimensions?
Your common sense helps and you know what the hell you’re doing so bump the haters that are jealous.
Can I use 12/2 form the outlet to the breaker instead of 8/3
You should be able to, yes. You just have less load capabilities.
Can you run this same setup with 2 30amp breakers??
I would assume so
Im wiring my tiny house with 14 2 wire not many outlets and a few lights, dorm fridge and micro will be on a 12 2 own line along with my AC unit on a 12 2 own line. Will that work?
It sounds about right. Are you doing 15 amp breakers for each branch?
@@oursimplestorychannel yes 15 amp breakers, I just hope I got the right service box, I think I got a 100 amp service box with like 6 or 8 breaker spots
6 breaker spots, looks like ill use 4 or 5 at least
@@familyfunwhipples it’s actually good to have more breaker capacity in case you one day add more breakers.
@@oursimplestorychannel so can I just supply with just 110v to the trailer and run the service box , will that be ok to supply 4 0r 5 15 amp breakers
That’s probably 10/2 wire actually, it’s usually orange and handles 30 amps.
Also that’s 10/2 wire. 3 would mean 3 wires (white, black,red-another hot line) ground wire doesn’t count in there numbering system.
if you had 10/3 you could have ran a red and black wire to each breaker for power in. Granted both would have to be hooked together on the hot side at the plug-in to get power...not code nor a standard practice for some safety concerns but would probably have worked just fine for this small size application.
This comment isn’t ment to be a dig at you but wisdom for anyone watching this to get knowledge like we do from RUclips videos.
Thanks for the info!
So its ok to bond the green and ground to the same bus??
Green is ground.
@@oursimplestorychannel ok sorry but my tiny house power will be based of this video. Thank you for the video. So my question is can the white wire and green wire both be connected to the same bus??
Yes. Totoally. Let me know if you have any more questions. Glad my video can be of help.
@@oursimplestorychannel would it be a wast of time to put a rod in the ground and bond the ground rod the the bus also for safety?? Im not planning on moving my tiny house for 2 years. Thank you.
The main issue I see now is that the wire coming i to the corner of your bathroom (the creative wiring). What you can do is add a nail plate or something to that affect to protect the wire from a nail or screw from hitting the wire. I understand that your keeping the build under $3K but your panel box concerns me a little. But if your loads are even and small, you should be fine
