2.3 Connecting to the Mains 230V supply
and Safety checks
For your safety it is IMPORTANT that you
follow these connections instructions each
time your Leisure Vehicle is connected to a
mains supply. This section assumes that the
system is complete and that a Leisure battery
has been installed (see 3.4).
A) Ensure suitability of the Mains Supply.
Your caravan should only be connected to an
approved supply that meets the requirements
of BS7671 or relevant harmonised standards.
In most cases the site warden will hold
information regarding suitability of supply. If
using a generator you also need to comply
with the requirements / instructions supplied
with the generator. Please note that some
electronic generators may not be compatible
with your leisure system. Further generator
operational information is contained elsewhere
in this manual.
B) Switch the PSU internal Power
Converter OFF.
Locate the green ‘Charger’ power switch on
the PSU and ensure the switch is in the off
position (button out) before connection to the
mains supply.
C) Connect the Hook-up Lead.
Firstly connect the supplied hook-up lead
(orange cable with blue connectors) to the
Leisure Vehicle and then connect to the mains
supply.
D) Check Residual Current Device
operation.
LLocate the RCD within the PSU and ensure
the RCD is switched on (lever in up position).
Press the ‘Test’ button and confirm that the
RCD turns off (lever in down position). Switch
the RCD back to the on position (lever in up
position). If the test button failed to operate the
RCD see section 3.18.
E) Check Miniature Circuit Breakers
LLocate the MCB’s within the PSU (adjacent to
the RCD) and ensure they are all in the on (up)
position. If any MCB’s fail to ‘latch’ in the on
position see section 3.18.
F) Turn the PSU ON.
Locate the black ‘Shutdown’ button and
ensure it is in the on position (press button in).
Locate the green ‘Charger’ switch on the PSU
and turn to the on position (press button in).
The charger switch will illuminate when turned
on.
G) Check correct Polarity.
Locate the ‘Reverse polarity’ indicator on the
PSU and ensure that the indicator is NOT
illuminated. If the indicator is illuminated see
section 3.18.
H) Check operation of equipment.
It is now safe to operate the 12V and 230V
equipment.
