I want a diagram of the INNARDS of my 2017 Tab 320 S. I called nuCamp but they have no diagram or repair manual. I need to know what's behind the walls and under the floor. Any ideas or info?

    @melpeter, it's more or less "what you see is all there is", as far as walls and ceiling. The walls and ceiling are made of adzel composite with aluminum hollow rods for reinforcing in the front to back ceiling. Walls are adzel composite with only strategic reinforcement placement. No electrical or plumbing is contained within walls or floor. Any services necessarily pass through holes into and out of the trailer. Use the search function in the upper right hand corner of the screen to find specific info such as breaker/s wiring diagram, or alde wiring, alde plumbing, refrigerator wiring, etc. Good luck. It's all part of the adventure. Enjoy!

    Not even the dealers have a service manual!

    I’m making up a drawing of the 400 so I feel your frustration. 
    This video will show you how it’s built so you can see what goes where behind the walls.

    • @MuttonChops  That is seriously quality work.  I admire the skills it took to make that structural PDF

    In this thread of a really nice solar panel mod, the author has some nice diagrams of the aluminum bracing in the arc of the roof, and some photos of Tabs under construction.


    This is a search for "factory tours."  Many owners have taken tours of NuCamp and brought back many photographs of the innards of the trailer, and you can get an idea of what is where, how the pipes are directed, where the tanks are, etc. 


    I think that a collection of these types of photos all under one thread might be useful.

    I have looked closely at many threads while learning about the individual systems:  plumbing, electrical, heating, and cooling.  Many owners share their modifications and have pictures and descriptions of many parts of the trailer hidden from view.  These mods, and people's solutions to problems that come up, have also been useful to me.  It does take a bit of patience, digging through the many posts here, but it was a true education.   It was the simplicity of the Tab that was a huge selling point for me.

    He does a nice job with the video, but he mis-identifies the black roof vent as the S model black tank vent (actually an air intake for the air conditioner).  The S model black and gray tank share the white side vent, whereas the CSS model has 2 separate white side vents.

    @melpeter, make sure you are accessing the forum via this link:
    https://tab-rv.vanillacommunity.com

    If you access the forum via the nuCamp website, there are various difficulties.
