After some delays, the doors for the electrical cavity are installed. Seen below are one closed and one open. The spaces below will have matching panels that are not hinged but rather just drop into place and latch securely.
The Ferrari America hardware used (from Connecticut River Lumber) supports a 90 degree opening with support. The left side door will have the AC panel mounted in it, as well as the control panel for the Xantrex converter. The right side will have the DC meter panel mounted, in addition to the Kenwood car audio system.
Below the standoffs from the front are seen, to which will be mounted rails to carry the Xantrex and the AC fused disconnect panel, in addition to the DC circuit breaker panel. We have decided to mount the latter in a relatively fixed position rather than on the drop-down door since it will have 2/0 wire connected to it, and heavy copper being repeatedly flexed will tend to break.
The next steps are to cut holes in the doors for the panels and other devices that will mount in them, and assemble and install the equipment mounting system that will use the above standoffs.
