Wiring Tiny House Bathroom Lighting

It was raining out quite hard so I chose to work indoors on the tiny house bathroom wiring. I want to get the lights installed and fuse blocks upstairs in the loft.

I will have two fuse blocks, one in the bedroom loft and one in the study. These each hold 6 fuses. The bedroom fuse block will go to the bedroom and bathroom. The study fuse block will go to the study and the living room.

I started out with the tiny home bathroom wiring. I stripped the wire that goes to the Airhead Composting toilet fan. This wire holds 4 strands of 12 gauge wire and only two were being used at this time.

I ran two of the wires around to the doorway where I am mounting a light switch. Then from there I ran wires around over the door and to the wall where I plan to mount two LED lamps.

After finishing the wiring in the bathroom I went up to the bedroom loft and installed the fuse block. I plan to build a decorative box for this later on but for now it is screwed to the OSB on the wall.

I ran a common ground connector from the main negative wire of the tiny house and then ran a wire from the main positive line to the fuse block.

Next I simply connected the individual wires to the fuse block and then inserted fuses.

I have power in the tiny house bathroom!!

For now I only have 12 volt DC power in the tiny home bathroom but I will be running AC power in there as well for shaving and cutting my hair.

I went downstairs and turned on the bathroom light switch and had light. Lots of light in the tiny house bathroom.

But the problem I discovered is that the lights will not fit behind the door properly so I have to relocate them or come up with a different idea. Anyway the wiring is finished for the lights.

All I need to do now is mount the light switches and build a box for them.
