Heavy duty adaptor, ideal for connecting equipment with a 16A industrial CEE IEC60309 plug to a standard UK 13A socket.
Typical Application
The picture below illustrates a typical application, with a UK caravan hook up connected to a Schuko socket using the universal Schuko/French adaptor.
Slightly confusingly, whilst UK sockets are commonly referred to as 13A, they can only supply 13A for short periods of time e.g. boiling a kettle. For prolonged loads, 10A is the maximum to avoid over-heating.
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.
