Below we highlight one of the best that we came across.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ProductBlock\">\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Pennine_UK_Main_Hook-Up_Adaptor\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/gp\/product\/B001AVLPF2?tag=caravanhelper-21\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>1.

It fully complies with CE marking and has a waterproof rating of IP44.<\/p>\n<p>With this you can have a permanent place to connect your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caravanhelper.co.uk\/best-caravan-battery-charger\/\">caravan when you are looking to charge the leisure battery<\/a>, test equipment or use it as a spare bedroom, rather than using the UK mains adaptor. It is rated up to 16-amp, so provides enough power for the main things you\u2019d be using it for.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Understanding_Common_Amp_Ratings\"><\/span><strong>Understanding Common Amp Ratings<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here comes the science bit. If you have always had trouble understanding what all the different terms mean, we\u2019re here to help.<\/p>\n<p>Watts is used to measure electrical power and amps is used to measure electrical current. An electrical appliance uses a current that\u2019s measured in watts. For instance, most, common hairdryers use a current of 6.5 amps or 1500 watts.<\/p>\n<p>Most have either a 6A, 10A or 16A rating, which indicates how much power they can provide. You will find that some sites in Europe offer 5A supplies. The best way to determine the amount of power you will need for the number of appliances you think you will use.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t advise using a household kettle (8.7A for instance), a fan heater (also 8.7A and a hairdryer (6.5A) on a hook up providing 10A. Not unless you want to be a pain to both the owners of the site and other campers and caravanners when you cause a trip.<\/p>\n<p>So, avoid that from happening by choosing the equipment carefully to avoid damaging both your reputation and appliances.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Do_the_Cables_Look_Like\"><\/span><strong>What Do the Cables Look Like?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Cables designed to be used with electric hook ups have a female and male end socket and a length of cable that measures approximately 25 metres. There are different sizes available to buy. When you are connecting your caravan at a site, remember to connect the female socket to your vehicle first, then connect the male socked into the power bollard. Connect the male from the cable to the female socket on the bollard, turning it clockwise to ensure that it locks securely.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Does_the_IP_Rating_Mean\"><\/span><strong>What Does the IP Rating Mean?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>IP is short for Ingress Protection and these ratings are defined in the EN60529 international standard. IP Ratings are used to define how effective electrical enclosures are against moisture and foreign bodies, such as dirt and tools, from damaging them.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the second digit in IP Ratings that indicates how waterproof it is. Avoid buying an electric hook up\u00a0cable that has anything less than an IP44 rating. Failing to do this could lead to a serious accident. We also recommend buying a storage bag for your mains hook up\u00a0lead.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_Electric_Hook_Ups\"><\/span><strong>Using Electric Hook Ups<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using them with your caravan is very much the same as using electricity at home. The main difference is that because you are using a mobile unit, there is a higher risk of mistakes being made. Regularly perform your own safety inspections and arrange for a fully qualified technician to run safety tests periodically.<\/p>\n<p>You can also avoid accidents by investing in an RCD or residual-current device (also known as a residual-current circuit breaker). This is a special device that will switch off an electrical circuit that is unsafe.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Equipment_You_Need_and_Where_to_Get_It\"><\/span><strong>The Equipment You Need and Where to Get It<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It may be common sense to many of you reading this, but it\u2019s worth noting that run-of-the-mill household extension cables are not suitable for use with electric hook ups. Ideally, you should buy EHU cables from a reputable retailer, whether that is online or offline.<\/p>\n<p>Although, as we noted earlier, EHU cables come in a variety of lengths, we recommend you should invest in a one of 25 metres so that you have enough to stretch to the bollard, even if your pitch is further away than you expected.<\/p>\n<p>Also, make sure you invest in an RCD which, as explained above, will avoid accidents and potential injury. These devices shut off automatically if they detect a problem with the circuit.<\/p>\n<p>We would also recommend that you invest in a plug-in mains tester. Particularly if you are caravanning abroad. This checks the polarity of the electricity supply and that there is an earth connection present.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, just in case you haven\u2019t read any of the relevant posts on this site about kettles and toasters and why it\u2019s important to use special low-wattage appliances, we recommend that your normal appliances at home and invest in special wattage models for on the road.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Potential_Risks_and_Dangers\"><\/span><strong>Potential Risks and Dangers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Although electric hook ups are, for the most part, safe; whenever electricity and potentially wet environments are involved you should always be extra careful. Make sure you follow the following tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Only use cables with an IP44 rating or more<\/li>\n<li>Avoid using too many appliances simultaneously, as this could overload the supply<\/li>\n<li>Speaking of overloading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Important_Information_About_Overloading\"><\/span><strong>Important Information About Overloading<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It may come a surprise to learn just how much power those everyday electrical appliances use. For example, that 800W-rated microwave you have probably used closer to 1000W of power, the equivalent of 4.3A, the fan heater with a 2Kw rating using around 8.7A and the average toaster uses approximately 3.9A.<\/p>\n<p>A normal kettle uses 2000W, or 8.7A. Therefore, we recommended above that you take special low-watt appliances. That one household item would use all the power from a 10A hook up.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not a fan of maths, it might be time to become one because the easiest way to avoid overloading your electric hook up is by doing a quick calculation, that is, V x A = W or Voltage times Current equals Power. This will help you figure out the power required by each appliance and how many you can use together.<\/p>\n<p>In the best-case scenario, if you overload your EHU, the bollard circuit breaker or your own RCD may simply have tripped the circuit. In the worst-case scenario, however, you may have to speak to the owners of the campsite to see if a fuse has been blown or not. This won\u2019t make you popular.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts_On_Caravan_Electric_Hook_Up_Cables\"><\/span>Final Thoughts On Caravan Electric Hook Up\u00a0Cables<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Although mains leads are not essential for a successful caravan, motorhome or campervan trip, it can make your time on the road that little bit more relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, if you are looking to enjoy some jam on toast in the morning, or need that cup of coffee or tea in the morning (and who doesn\u2019t) or you simply want to be able to use your hairdryer or straighteners without any fuss, you need to invest in one.<\/p>\n<p>With the article above you should now have all the information, you need to make sensible choices when it comes to buying one and making use of this helpful extra at the sites where it\u2019s available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caravan electric hooks ups are a part of caravanning, owning a motorhome or camping that can be rather intimidating if you have never dealt with them before and you are trying to make heads or tails of electrical conversion tables for the first time in your life.
