This wiring kit (and also the installation hardware kit) are required by Dometic to be used to install either the RTX 1000 or RTX 2000 12-volt rooftop air conditioners to have a valid warranty. You can purchase this kit separately if needed or it’s bundled with the RTX 1000 or RTX 2000 air conditioners.

This wiring kit comes with the following components. Since a photo is worth a thousand words, we have an illustration of the wiring harness components.

26′ (8 meter) wiring harness with two sets of wires:12-volt DC supply for operating the AC: this is a set of red/black, 4 AWG wires. On one end, there is an Anderson-style connector that matches the connection on a short pigtail coming from the AC unit. The other end is bare wire that you’ll use other supplied components to terminate with ring terminals and wire the red (positive) wire through an 80-amp fuse.Voltage sensing wires: this is a set of much smaller gauge (thinner) red/black wires with a small white connection that pairs with a short pigtail coming from the AC unit. The other end is bare wire that you’ll use supplied components to terminate with ring terminals and wire the red (positive) wire through a small, ATC fuse. This set of wires does not power the unit, instead, it monitors the voltage of the battery, at the battery (or system bus bar) to that the unit can shut itself off at a set voltage to protect the battery from overly discharging. The low voltage shutdown setting can be adjusted in 0.1 volt increments from 10 volts to 12.5 volts.
A bag of electrical terminals/fuses to be used as described above on the “supply side” of the harness to terminate to the 12-volt DC battery/bus bar.4x, 4 AWG (yellow) ring terminals.2x, 22-18 AWG (red) ring terminals.1x, 22-18 AWG (red) butt splice.1x, 80 amp fuse with fuse holder.1x, inline ATC fuse holder, and 2 amp fuse.
Rubber gasket (taller) for sealing the AC baseplate to the roof of the installation. Note that the required installation hardware kit includes a shorter version. Most installers prefer the shorter version but the taller version is helpful in certain installation conditions.
$20 flat-rate shipping to the continental USA.

I’m happy to give a shout out to VanLife Outfitters. These folks are an incredible example of how a company should conduct business. Although I’m building a truck camper, I have bought several things from VanLife outfitters and their customer service is bar none . I would never hesitate recommending VanLife outfitters to anyone whether they are building a van camper or boat. And I might add even a tiny home. Everyone that I’ve talked to have been nothing but incredible. In particular, Jason in technical support was an incredible blessing to me. I had a problem with the Aqua Hot Gen 1 heater I bought from them. It was not the heater fault, but something I did. Jason helped bird-dog the solution and together we got it fixed. He stuck with me, did research, and called me back several times to make sure that the problem was resolved. These people know the business, many have their on rigs, which gives them the best experience. Thanks you Vanlife Outfitters!!!!

This company is amazing! Quick shipping, best price possible. Customer for LIFE! Thanks Vanlife!

My husband and I are doing our first vanbuild. As rookies, we have found Vanlife Outfitters to be a trusted resource for ease of product shopping and purchasing, video demonstrations, guidance and excellent customer service. They were particularly a great one-stop shop when building our electrical system.

I ordered most of the parts for my sprinter conversion from them. They have absolutely the best customer service. I had issues with my fridge installation duing the weekend and eamiled their customer service for help. Both times, they emailed me back with the instructions/help I need on Sunday. Thank you and this is absolutely my go to place.

Spent lotsa money here, will probably spend more. High quality products, fast shipping and tremendous support. Excellent free resources, e.g. wiring diagrams, on the website. Highly recommend.
