Updating Electrical

With the removal of the ice box and the need for a plug or two on the kitchen side of the trailer, removed all the old 110v electrical wiring and started fresh. Kept the same electrical circuit breaker box but added a circuit breaker. So there are now two circuit breakers, 1 for lighting and under kitchen cab. outlet and 1 for the fridge and outlet next to stove.
