Though it's not my intention to "stealth camp", I want to leave open the possibility. The power inlet is hidden under the left rear bumper. It's a NEMA L5-30 amp twist-lock.

You can see the flag-shaped power pins that keep the plug from falling out when it's twisted in.

The smaller bumper hole has the required vertical space to accommodate the NEMA L5-30 plug and its weatherproofing / strain relief.

The larger bumper hole has access to the D pillar. The white two-piece wire grommet starts on both sides of the hole and threads together at the hole.

The assembled wire grommet and the run up the D pillar into the van.

The Ford Transit's van battery pair is housed in the driver seat. I've created a sheet metal sleeve behind the seat to hold an inverter, to drop the current by increasing the voltage to 120VAC to be able to use 14 AWG while pulling 1500 watts from Ford's CP2 battery connection.

The DC House Batteries are eight 12V 100A LiFePo4 batteries, individually fused and routed with 4 AWG cable to the two bus bars (one positive and one negative). They're packed securely into a 2'x2' steel box.

The box is immediately adjacent to the 3000W inverter/charger, connected with 4/0 cable. The master battery switch also disconnects the 100 amp breaker that leads to the 12V fuse box.
