ehu

Hi collective wisdom, I need some ideas / input on where to locate my consumer unit and 12v DC fuse panel. I have a mass of cables coiled up behind the rear quarter panel giving me some flexibility on where I locate the CU and 12v fuse board. I had initially thought about the lower cupboard by...

I've had a look and can't see much if anything for this. To try to justify an integrated electric hook up install alongside 12v setup (with additional 1000w+ power station perhaps) we need a list of potential items for EHU please. I have created the below tiny list, if anyone has anything to...

Hi, when I plug my camper into the mains via electric hookup at home (UK) to charge the leisure battery, my control panel sometimes shows the reverse polarity light as on and/or flickering between reverse polarity and not. I have to sometimes unplug and replug in a few times before the reverse...

My van is new to me and I had the first off grid trip away last weekend with no issues. When I got home I plugged the EHU in to charge the leisure battery. The EHU is located under the bonnet so I plugged it in, lowered the bonnet but didn’t close it all the way for fear of damaging the cable...

I have recently purchased my first T6 camper and was away at the weekend on a campsite and connected to the electric hookup. I thought this would also charge the leisure battery, but it does not, it only powers 2 plug sockets and the only thing that charges the leisure battery is by running the...

Got my van today and this equipment was left in ! I was never getting involved in the electrics but I wonder if this equipment could be used in my conversion ??

Hi All, I’m after some advice regarding the electrical set up on my T28. In the main the van will most likely be on sites with an electric hook up, with the odd few days being remote. The question is I see many vans with leisure batteries with inverters and all sorts of wiring and others using...

Hello new owner of a new t6 conversion first time away & first time plugging into the site mains & it tripped their power. The rcd inside the van doesn’t trip just the sites power point. Tried a New cable & same thing happened. Everything in the can seems to work & tested fine. Any idea on what...

Hello, We 've got a T6 Beach on a 2017 plate and am having issues with the leisure battery not charging, the RCD in the boot of the van trips instantly and I suspect the factory fit VW charger is to blame, seeing as the charger is hidden behind the trim I'd like to have a suitable replacement...

Just received my 230v kit and received 1.5 metres of 2.5 3 core cable but I want to run the inlet from under the bonnet through the cab and to the consumer unit attached to the back of my units. Obviously 1.5 meters isn’t going to be long enough to do that, which is fine as I can get a longer...

My Sargent EC155 isn't charging the Fogstar Lithium battery. I've checked the 15amp charger fuse on the Sargent and all the switches are up on the breaker. Read another post on here that says probably easier to install a direct charge solution as, the charger function of the Sargent is...

Ok so im looking to replace the CU i have under my passenger seat with a smaller one under the bonnet, currently i have a single mains cable running from under the bonnet into the van and to the consumer unit where i have a MCB and 2 RCDs one for the battery charger and one for the single socket...

Is there anywhere at the rear to run cables into the back of the van from the rear, into the drivers rear quarter panel ? Re-converting our van and at some point someone has ran some cables up through the gas vent near the rear wheel arch where the gas cupboard was. We are going induction...

I have just removed my full EHU set up including Victron IP65 15a 12v charger. Only removed as I have since added an additional battery solar and inverter for off grid use so no longer need. This was all built to be hidden under the bonnet for invisible hook up. Full kit includes Wylex IP65...

The grill is a DIY solution I made a while ago but never fitted as I bought an ABT grill. Details of V1 build are here https://www.t6forum.com/threads/replacement-grille-with-built-in-230v-socket.11077/page-5#post-306064 I’m looking for £100 ONO

Hello! I've recently purchased my first camper:waving:- and I had a question that I'm hoping someone could help with. I believe it's a fairly standard setup with a Leisure Battery that runs the lights and the fridge, and it has 240V Plug-Tower and Microwave for when it's connected to a...

Wondering if this is adequate for the purpose. To be fitted inline at the bonnet end of the EHU cable I'll be routing from under the bonnet to supply my Victron smart charger and onwards to a double wall socket...

Parked up on site yesterday. Plugged in but no power in the van at all, tried my spare cable and still nothing. The unit on the power pole was on and counting, the test function tripped the unit no problem. I tried the neighbouring power points as the site was empty.. still nothing. Was too...

Can anybody recommend a RCD which will not trip in the event of a power cut or do they all do it as that’s what they're supposed to do? I’ve currently got an of the shelf kit with the socket end outside (obvs) to feed power to the van EHU (and battery charger via a 240v socket) or battery...
