Product Information

Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). However the challenge may be in older buildings, where only traditional Italian sockets are provided.

We find that approaching half the sites we stay on don't have the new style hook ups and an adaptor is needed. When you actually try to use it, it often takes up too much space and stops the weatherproof door from closing on the hookup post. My home made reversing lead is about 2 metres long deliberately so the near van coupling onto the EHU lead can be kicked way under the van out of the rain.Two weeks in France and only one place that had a euro two pin socket (plus earth) but it had a standard blue three pin next to it. We always carry a French / German adaptor cable as the type used on a site (or aire) is totally unpredictable. Any plug that has cut-outs to allow it to go into the schuko socket must have top and bottom contacts for earthing.

This continental Conversion lead will allows you to run an English 3 Pin plug though a standard European 2 pin socket on caravan sites. Then, on the other hand, we are just back from 6 weeks using 8 sites, 6 of these had only Schuko outlets for our pitches.

Firstly lots of people don't have one or test polarity and don't have a fault on their appliances so are fine. Overall, a good and useful piece of kit, unfortunately arrived after I had left UK so never had the chance to make use of it on this occasion! MCB protected adaptor use a Gewiss robust IP55 weatherproof DIN enclosure (overall dimensions W105mm x H170mm x D98mm) with a 16A type B MCB.If the polarity is reversed and a fault occur, the single pole circuit breaker MCB (if it still works in this reverse configuration) will trip, but disconnect the neutral connection. It's not so much that the supply is AC it's that we in the UK consider the 'neutral' to be at earth (ground) potential and usually only switch (disconnect) the 'live'.
