Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this socket come with installation screws?

No, the package does not include mounting screws, as the required screw type depends on the material of your vehicle's wall.

Can I install this myself?

While the physical mounting can be done by a DIYer, all electrical connections must be performed by a suitably qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance.

Is this socket compatible with UK campsite hook-up cables?

Yes, it is designed to work with all standard 16A hook-up cables commonly used in the UK and Europe.

What does the IP44 rating mean?

IP44 means the unit is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm and is protected against water splashes from all directions.

Is this suitable for 110V power systems?

No, this unit is designed specifically for 200-250V supply systems.

Troubleshooting

Plug does not fit or locks with difficulty

Check that you are using a standard 16A CEE plug and ensure there is no debris inside the pin housing.

Power is not reaching the vehicle

Verify the connection at both the vehicle inlet and the campsite power bollard, and check that the RCD/MCB in your vehicle's consumer unit has not tripped.

Lid does not stay closed

Check the spring mechanism for any physical obstructions or signs of mechanical fatigue.

Pros and Cons

  • Sleek flush-mount design for a clean look
  • Easy-to-use spring-loaded protective cover
  • Standardized IEC/CEE compatibility

Cons

  • Mounting screws not included in the package

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this unit, you must first ensure the location on your vehicle is flat and free of debris. Use a professional-grade sealant behind the unit to maintain a waterproof seal against the vehicle wall. Because the unit does not include mounting screws, you will need to source hardware appropriate for your vehicle's specific wall material (such as fiberglass or aluminum).

Care Instructions:

  • Regularly inspect the hinge to ensure the lid snaps shut freely.
  • Keep the interior pins clean and free of corrosion.
  • If storing the vehicle for a long period, ensure the lid is fully closed.
  • Note: All wiring must be handled by a qualified electrician to prevent short circuits or fire hazards.
