Spare wires in ceiling ?
When I removed the roof vent trim piece from the inside of my 2004 Georgetown 325 MH, I found both AC and DC wiring spared underneath.

I guess that the DC would be used if there were a fan installed, but why would the AC romex cable also be there?

The romex ends into a loose hanging plastic box that must be a connection box.

For a second 13,000 or 15,000 AC would be my guess.

I agree the romex is for a second AC. Just installed a second AC in my 5er.

No, can't be for an AC unit. The MH already has 2.

Maybe, but doubtful on only a 32' MH.

When we took the ac filter off for cleaning, even noticed extra wires not connected to anything, I Just think they run wires for about any configuration and just don't hook anything up to them. Would just make sure the end are taped/capped and leave alone.
