If this is the case, then you need to install a breaker panel in the garage and the wire should be sized for AT LEAST 60A. How far is it from the breaker panel to where you are going to place the RV outlet ? The Garage that I park the trailer next to is just a storage building that has no power in it and I don,t need power in it. I park the camper there so it is out of the way.Re: What Size Wire 30ampThanks much for all the info.What Size Wire 30ampI would like to put a 30 amp RV plug on my garage.

I have to open the roof vent and the bedroom window or the windows will steam over.Re: Coachmen 261 bh Mine finally arrived 2018My spouse and I also liked the big window next to the dinette. Ours also has the full wall between the couch and front bedroom.Re: Coachmen 261 bh Mine finally arrived 2018I guess I was lucky being a 2016 the covers came with it. I too have the full wall. They are a pretty unit. Everywhere we go people comment on it.Re: Coachmen 261 bh Mine finally arrived 2018Oh, Sink covers are standard on Coachmen Catalinas. I,m with you on not having slides on a RV. We,ve had,em and they are a pain. Plus they add extra weight.
