INSTRUCTIONS FOR ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
On arrival at caravan site
General Information:
It is strongly advised that the mains
installation is inspected periodically to ensure
safe use. Wiring regulation BS7671
recommend that mains installations in
motorhomes are re-inspected every 3 years
or annually if the van is used frequently. The
National Caravan Council list the required
qualifications to perform this inspection.
On arrival at the camp site:
1) Check the suitability of the supply, if it is
AC or DC and if the voltage and
frequency are correct.
2) Ensure that there is a proper earth (3 pin
socket outlet)
3) If in doubt always consult camp sight
staff for guidance.
4) Make sure that the supply from the sight
is switched off.
5) Make sure that the charger switch
located on the PSU is switched off.
6) On the motorhome lift the cover of the
electricity inlet located at the rear off side
of the vehicle (Fig 1).
7) Insert the connector on the flexible
supply cable (Fig 2).

8) At the site supply point insert the other
end using the socket provided.
9) Switch on the mains switch at the site
supply point.
Note: It is recommended to test the RCD
(Residual Current Devices) in the PSU before
switching on. There is a test button on the
RCD to test the lever. Put the lever in the up
position (on) before testing.
Note: As with the RCD it is good practice to
check with the Miniature Circuit Breaker
(MCB) in the PSU. Switch all to the on
position (lever up). If any do not stay up then
there is a fault.
