The lower left picture shows a socket that is perfectly round, with no raised sections on the left and right. The extension lead you are considering * gives you that all important safety item the RCD [residual current device].

However as I always removing appliances from the socket when not in use and my only other mains item being the leisure battery charge unit I don't worry much about reversals. 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. Whilst the EHU point might well include its own RCD it is so much better to know you have that protection. Nearly all the campsites in mainland Europe we’ve been to use the same 3 pin plug as us, but only time I’ve needed the 2 pin adaptor was in France.Most countries use the standard round blue 3-pin socket for outdoor connections like campsites and aires. So even if you hate France and never go again (which I very much doubt) you will have saved yourself money.

Data on their prevalence is not available, and so it is likely that in many places a Danish adaptor will still be required. Though we specialise in selling camping and caravan accessories at low cost, we will not compromise on quality. 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. As you quoted me you should have left on the part I was pointing out, we don't have the earth pin and hole in the plug in Spain, so a Spanish plug doesn't fit French sockets, and yes you are right about top and bottom contacts for earth, I just googled French electric socket and that's the photo that came up.It matters if you are connecting any electrical appliance as if it has an on/off switch then that only breaks one wire line. The CEE 7/7 plug was developed to work with sockets E and F and has grounding clips on both sides (to work with Type F sockets) and a female contact (to accept the grounding pin of the type E socket).

I'm not certain how the internal mains wiring is connected on a Cali, if there is an isolation transformer then reversal does not matter. 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!These are a serious hazard, as if a fault o ccurs the cable and camper would not be protected by a 16A breaker.

On many sites the sockets are inside a (metal) box and if a straight plug is use the door will not shut to protect the contents from rain. p>Late or missing payments may have serious consequences for you and cause you serious money problems. Many a time on sites particularly in Spain I've found the electric hook up sockets are quite sparsely. This year I found a number of sockets with no earth - a couple on Bella Riva (Les Pommiers as was) plus one or two reverse polarity on other sites. The Vechline Mains Hook Up Adaptor UK enables a caravan mains lead to be connected to a UK 13A 3 pin socket.
