The item in my kit

I bought Nilight Twelve-Way Fuse Block as part of my camper van equipment.

I bought the Nilight panel for the electrical parts collection behind my van build. Its labeled circuit positions address organization at the distribution end, while my roof diary follows the wiring from individual lights and cameras toward the van entry.

Where it fits my build

I brought the roof light wires and camera cables into a PVC conduit layout. That work included drilled enclosures, threaded fittings, cable glands, solder-seal splices and grouped wiring.

During the small-box stage, I drilled for a male PVC fitting and used a fitting inside as a retaining nut. I routed the camera cable through a gland into a tee and brought the light-wire groups toward the van entry.

My build notes

The wiring project was a sequence of individual connections and routes. The photographs show the intermediate stages, including open boxes and wrapped wire groups, before the remaining covers and conduit joints were finished.

I built the cable route a section at a time, bringing local connections into the larger conduit system.

Alternative products

Two alternatives to compare

Blue Sea's ST Blade panel and the Kohree twelve-way block offer other covered blade-fuse layouts; the Kohree listing includes an assortment of fuses, while the Blue Sea listing separates the fuses from the panel.

Questions from my build

A PVC conduit layout with boxes, fittings and cable glands.

What did I do at the small junction box?

I drilled the box for a threaded PVC fitting and arranged the light-wire connections inside that part of the route.
