Title: Speed Box Outlet
Post by: jor on December 29, 2020, 06:05:23 pm
I replaced one of the 120v outlets today. This post is for anyone unfamiliar with these little guys. They are called speed boxes and all over these coaches. There might be a better way of doing it but I use a couple pieces of wood and a c-clamp to assemble it.

If you have a big slip joint pliers they cn be used to crimp the connection.

I have replaced a lot of mine with quick wall boxes and regular residential receptacles to match the amperage needed.

I tried to find the plastic tabs the screw goes into to no avail.
I ended up buying one of the blue electrical boxes that comes with those but it did not work.

It's the electrical box at the driver foot well which is not used at all
