Component descriptions

Some of these components can be swapped out using the menus above in one of four categories. 

Mains consumer unit

A 2-way double pole consumer unit with a 40A 30ma RCD combined in series with 6A and 16A double pole MCBs. Overall dimensions are 170mm x 150mm x 90mm (W x L x H)

Outlet Sockets & number of sockets

Available in a choice of finishes and you can add up to 4 double sockets in this kit. As you add more sockets, we also account for the additional cable you will need to run between them. 

All of the outlet sockets come in a double, with 2 x standard 3 pin UK plug outlets. 

They are all provided with a back box too, the back boxes mount in behind the sockets to make sure the terminals aren't exposed.

Inlet socket

Covered surface mounted inlet socket. This is the best socket for mounting under the bonnet or beneath the rear bumper. It has two mounting screws on the base and takes a standard 3 pin round blue hook up lead. It is wired from the back of the pins, using screw clamp type fastenings. 

Flush mounted inlet socket. This uses the same 3 pin round blue hook up lead to connect between the site post and your camper. It's designed to be mounted through the side of the van by cutting a hole. Supplied with a backing gasket (we use this as a template for cutting the hole). It has 4 screw holes, one in each corner to compliment the recommended fixing/sealing methods. Available in white or black. 

Battery charger

8A mains to leisure battery charger. This is a 7 stage smart charging unit which is capable of charging and maintaining leisure battery banks of up to 160Ah. (approx). Complete with separate charging modes for wet, gel and AGM batteries. The unit has holes for screw mounting to a board. Solid-state without a cooling fan to ensure a quiet night's sleep even when hooked up. Comes supplied with a 3 pin fused plug to plug into the single socket. The DC wiring is detachable through a quick-release plug and comes wired with ring terminals to bolt onto your leisure battery. (unless the charger is located away from the leisure battery, in which case we will extend the charger and supply with a fuse box connector to protect the cables). This is a fit and forget unit.
