Skoolie Electrical

Anyone have a good article bookmarked for a guide to electrical components/Install?

I am looking to set up a 110v system with Batteries, Inverter Generator (already have one), Shore power hookup, and the ability to hook up Solar system in a few years time.

I pored over this site https://faroutride.com/electrical-system/ when I was planning our system. Looks like they might be charging for the diagrams now?, but there's still a ton of free information. If you're skipping the solar for now then its a pretty basic setup. We plug our generator into the shore power inlet when we need to run it, but the solar keeps the batteries topped up the majority of the time. We've only used the genny a few times. We've also got a combined Inverter/Charger with a built-in transfer switch, so that takes some of the complexity out of the equation.

I’m in the same boat. I want to set mine up just like yours. I have a decent grasp on electrical but was looking for some kind of guide to connecting everything and all the components.
