Specifically designed for the safe connection of caravan and motor homes on camp sites, where they are commonly referred to as 'caravan hook ups'.
The internet seems to be awash with cheap caravan hook-ups using 1.5mmsq orange or blue artic cable. As 1.5mmsq cable is underrated and artic cable also has poor resistance to both mechanical/UV damage and should not be used below -5C, we won't entertain using it. They also do not comply with the requirements of BS7671 IEE for connecting caravans (2.5mmsq minimum cable required).
In contrast, our premium reel is manufactured in Germany from marine grade 2.5mmsq H07BQ-F rubber cable, which offers many of the benefits of black H07RN-F rubber, with the advantage of being bright orange. The cable is fitted with a 230v 16A plug, with a trailing 230v 16A socket on the other end.
Please see our guide for the definitive source of information on connecting caravans and motorhomes to campsites, domestic sockets, generators and EV charging points across the UK, Europe and Scandinavia.
N.B. Volkswagen California campers are fitted with an inlet which has rather restrictive clearance for the connected socket - please select the specific option.
