Installing a HIK in a camper van

We're converting a Chevy Express Passenger van into a camper. I have the Yeti 1500x and the HIK installed at home. My plan is to install an HIK in the van, that the Yeti would plug into - just like at home.

With four circuits, one to a fridge outlet, one each for Left and Right side, one available for future power awnings. I discussed this with the electrician who installed the HIK, he recommended a Chair Lug, and grounding point on the frame. Other than that, it's pretty simple 10/2 wire to outlets.

Has anyone tried this? Am I under-thinking this?

    @Kingofallcpr,

    We can only recommend installing the HIK in a permanent structure like a home by a licensed electrician. If you want to have an electrician or custom van builder you assume all risks and we will not provide guidance on how to do this.

    Does that answer your question?
