So following some experiments over here I thought I'd write up making an adaptor to connect a charger to a 13 pin trailer socket. Caveat: This is presented as info for what worked for me, make your own judgement about if it works for you :thumbsup: What is this? In a fully wired 13 pin...

Hi All, I’m hoping someone may be able to help. I’m currently driving through Spain with my family on our first major trip in our van. All has been going fine, we’ve stayed at a couple of campsites and connected the electric successfully. We discovered the box in the first image and found...

This might be the silliest question today - apologies. I want to add another 240V CBE C-Line mains socket in the back of my van (obviously fed power from the EHU). There are currently two of them in what I would call a 'daisy chain' (ie. wire for the second are coming out of the back of the...

Right. I’ve been putting this off for a while but as it now affects my Dometic fridge and we’re looking to go on a trip to Europe this summer I need to tackle this. Been putting it off because electrics (and plumbing for that matter) are like the Dark Arts to me! So please bear with and excuse...

I am just about to install a Victron Multiplus 12/500/20 500VA inverter charger under my drivers seat and have been provided with a kit from a supplier that includes 2 consumer units, 1 for the incoming supply between the EHU and the Multiplus, and 1 for the outgoing supply between the Multiplus...

Can anybody help an electrical numpty please? We’ve just returned from a few days at Easewell Farm in Mortehoe on a pitch with EHU advertised as 16 Amp. After arrival, we plugged in our small 850W electric kettle and made a cuppa followed by a second one about 30 minutes later and all was OK...

Hi, I'm considering fitting a Transporter HQ 'VW Transporter Tailgate Stealth Rear Door Compartment' and hiding my EHU socket inside. Has anyone done this modification and has tips or photos of the result? This is the modification...

Hi All, I'm new to campervans and have had a T6.1 for about a year. I used it a lot last summer with no issues. However I have noticed that the leisure battery is no longer charging from the mains hook up. I have checked the cable and also used another but no change. I also checked the fuses on...

Hi all. Fairly new to this. Working on electrics for my T6 conversion. I've completed my seat base battery and Renogy DC-DC battery charger. install. Now I'm thinking about hookup wiring. I see that lucky tailgate owners have the option of hinging the panel below the rear lights and installing...

Just a thought, I was going to install 240v into the van for hook up while on site. Plan was to use the van (currently only a shuttle with 2 rows of seats) fir sleeping and a decent drive away awning fir everything else. Rather than pay £300 ish for permanent install in van, could I just use one...

Hi, I have a mobile camping power unit (4 sockets, rcd and mcb in one). I was thinking of repurposing it as an EHU. The thinking seems to be that it should be earthed to the body. So my question to the fine folk of the forum is, if the power unit is close and wired to a charger which is...

Hi all, My van has a leisure battery fed by the vans' normal charging system, with the switch to prevent overcharging etc. The problem is, in the winter with all the lights on and heater going, after a day, I need to start the van up and recharge the leisure battery as the EHU on sites merely...
