Product Information

Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the length of the Crusader 25m Mains Hook Up Lead?

The lead has a length of 25 meters (approximately 82 feet).

What type of connectors does this lead use?

It uses standard 16A site plug and coupler connectors, also known as CEE style connectors, commonly used for caravans and motorhomes.

Is this lead suitable for all campsite power supplies?

The lead is rated for 16A, which is standard for most UK and European campsites. It is suitable for standard 16A hook-ups. Always check the power rating of your specific campsite outlet.

Can this lead be used in wet conditions?

Yes, the lead has an IP44 water resistance rating, meaning it is splash resistant and suitable for use in light rain. However, avoid full immersion in water.

What is the internal construction of the cable?

The cable features three 1.5mm² conductors made of 100% copper for reliable power transmission.

What regulations does this lead conform to?

It conforms to relevant regulations including BS 7671, EN 60309-1, and EN 60309-2.

How should I store the lead when not in use?

Coil the lead loosely to prevent kinks and store it in a dry environment to maintain its condition and longevity.

Troubleshooting

No power to the vehicle

Check that the lead is securely plugged into both the campsite bollard and the vehicle. Verify that the campsite power source is active and that any breakers on the bollard are switched on. Inspect the lead and connectors for any visible damage; if damaged, do not use the lead.

Intermittent power or flickering lights

Ensure all connections are tight, as a loose connection can cause intermittent power. Check that the total power draw from your vehicle's appliances does not exceed the 16A limit of the lead and the campsite supply. If the issue persists, the lead may have internal damage and should be replaced.

Connector feels loose or won't engage properly

Inspect the pins and sockets for dirt or debris. Clean gently with a dry cloth. Ensure you are using the correct 16A CEE style connectors. If the connectors appear bent or damaged, the lead may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Generous 25m length offers excellent flexibility for positioning your vehicle.
High-visibility orange color enhances safety and reduces trip hazards.
Robust 1.5mm² copper conductors ensure reliable power delivery for standard 16A connections.
Standard 16A CEE connectors provide wide compatibility with most recreational vehicles.
IP44 rating offers good protection against splashes and dust.

Cons

The 16A rating may not be sufficient for very high-power appliances or specific site outlets.
While durable, it is a heavy-duty lead and may be heavier to transport than lighter-duty options.
The bright orange color, while a safety feature, might be considered less aesthetically pleasing by some.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the Crusader 25m Mains Hook Up Lead, simply connect the 16A site plug to the available power bollard or outlet at your campsite. Then, connect the 16A coupler end to the corresponding inlet on your caravan, motorhome, or campervan. Ensure both connections are firm and secure.

Compatibility: This lead is designed for use with standard UK caravan and motorhome electrical hook-up points. It features a 16A CEE style plug and coupler, which are widely adopted across most European campsites and specifically suited for touring vehicles.

Care: After each use, disconnect the lead from both the power source and your vehicle. Coil the lead loosely to avoid kinks and store it in a dry place. Periodically inspect the cable and connectors for any signs of damage, wear, or corrosion. Clean the connectors with a dry cloth if they appear dirty. Due to its IP44 rating, it is splash resistant, but avoid submerging the lead in water or exposing it to heavy, direct rainfall for extended periods. Storing it properly will prolong its lifespan and ensure continued safe operation.
