Powering An RV Park Project

This is a large outdoor project to showcase our expertise at Aztec Electrical in installing a sustainable power system.

The goal was clear: design and install a robust electrical system that would power dozens of RV sites while prioritizing safety, efficiency, and user-friendliness. Here’s a closer look at what this project entailed:

Voltage Outlets: Each RV site is now equipped with multiple voltage options, including 20-amp, 30-amp, and 50-amp outlets. These accommodate a wide range of RV models, from compact trailers to luxury motorhomes, ensuring every camper has access to the power they need.

Site Lighting: Strategic lighting was installed at every site, enhancing visibility and safety after dark. This includes pole-mounted lights and subtle ground-level illumination, creating a welcoming atmosphere without disrupting the natural surroundings.

Control Boxes: Durable, weather-resistant control boxes were installed at each site, giving campers easy access to power management. These boxes are designed for intuitive use, minimizing hassle and maximizing convenience. From planning to execution, this project required meticulous attention to detail. Our team worked closely with the developers of the park to ensure every element of the electrical system aligned with the park’s vision while meeting—or exceeding—industry standards.

Tailored Power Solutions for Every Camper

One of the standout features of the park is its ability to cater to a diverse range of RVs. Not all recreational vehicles are created equal, and their power requirements vary significantly. A small teardrop trailer might only need a 20-amp connection for basic appliances, while a sprawling fifth-wheel RV could demand a 50-amp hookup to run air conditioning, microwaves, and entertainment systems simultaneously.

Our team installed a tiered power system to accommodate this variety. Each site offers:

20-amp outlets for lightweight campers or those looking to power minimal equipment.

30-amp outlets for mid-sized RVs, a common choice for weekend travelers.

50-amp outlets for high-end rigs that require robust electrical capacity.

This flexibility ensures that the park can welcome campers of all kinds, from budget-conscious adventurers to those seeking a luxurious outdoor retreat. Plus, with our expertise in electrical load balancing, we’ve ensured the system can handle peak usage without overloading—keeping the power flowing smoothly even on the busiest summer weekends.

Lighting the Way: Safety and Ambiance Combined

Good lighting is essential for any RV park, and at this park, we went above and beyond to strike the perfect balance between functionality and aesthetics. Our lighting design serves three key purposes:

Safety: Well-lit pathways and sites reduce the risk of trips or falls, especially for late-night arrivals or early-morning departures.

Convenience: Campers can easily navigate their sites and hook up their RVs without fumbling in the dark.

Atmosphere: Soft, warm lighting enhances the camping experience, creating a cozy vibe that complements the natural surroundings.

We opted for energy-efficient LED fixtures throughout the park, which offer long-lasting performance and lower energy costs for the facility. Pole lights provide broad coverage, while low-level markers guide campers along roads and walkways. Each site also features its own dedicated light source, ensuring privacy and independence for every visitor.

Control Boxes: The Heart of Each Site

At the core of our installation are the custom control boxes we’ve placed at every RV site. These units are more than just power hubs—they’re engineered for durability and ease of use in an outdoor environment. Key features include: Weatherproof Design: Built to withstand rain, wind, and extreme temperatures, these boxes are ready for year-round use.

User-Friendly Interface: Clear labeling and accessible switches make it simple for campers to connect and manage their power supply.

Safety Features: Each box is equipped with circuit breakers and surge protection to safeguard both the RV and the park’s electrical grid.

Our team conducted rigorous testing on every control box to ensure reliability. Whether it’s a first-time camper or a seasoned RVer, users can plug in with confidence, knowing the system is designed to perform flawlessly.

Backup Generator is Essential for an RV Park

One key component of this project was the inclusion of a backup generator—a critical feature for ensuring the park remains functional, safe, and enjoyable for its visitors.

A backup generator provides reliability. RV campers expect a seamless experience, and losing power can disrupt everything from basic comforts to essential needs like food storage or medical equipment for some guests. Our family-owned company understands Medford’s rural charm and its occasional challenges, so we installed a generator robust enough to keep the park’s electrical systems humming, no matter the circumstances. This means RV hookups stay live, keeping campers happy and businesses running smoothly.

nergy management is a big part of our work, and a backup generator fits right into that mission. While we optimized the RV park’s electrical systems for efficiency, a generator acts as a failsafe, preventing disruptions that could inconvenience dozens of visitors at once. For park owners, this translates to operational continuity—bathrooms, laundry facilities, and office systems stay online, avoiding costly downtime or unhappy campers.

Overcoming Challenges with Expertise

No project of this scale comes without its challenges, and this park was no exception. The site’s layout, with its mix of open spaces and wooded areas, required careful planning to route power lines efficiently while preserving the natural landscape. Additionally, the need to future-proof the system meant anticipating potential expansions—more sites, additional amenities, or even electric vehicle charging stations down the line.

Our solution? A modular design that allows for scalability without compromising the current setup. We buried much of the wiring underground to protect it from the elements and maintain the park’s aesthetic appeal. Trenches were carefully dug and reinforced to ensure long-term stability, and all installations comply with local codes and regulations.

Weather was another hurdle. Outdoor electrical work is at the mercy of Mother Nature, and we faced our share of rain delays and temperature swings. But with a proactive approach—scheduling around forecasts and using weather-resistant materials—we kept the project on track, delivering a finished product on time and within budget.
