Range of weatherproof adaptors to enable a granny charger with a UK 13A plug to be connected to a wide range of sockets at camp sites, marinas and industrial premises.
Standard CEE Plug Versions
The picture below illustrates a typical application; an EV charger with a UK 13A plug is connected to a 230v 16A hook up, commonly found at campsites and marinas.
The socket enclosure houses a high quality single socket.
T Connector Version
Developed following customer requests for a lead that enabled an EV to be charged from a campsite 230v 16A 'hook-up', whilst also allowing the caravan/motorhome to remain connected. The lead has a special connector which is a combined 230v 16A plug and socket. It simply plugs in between the campsite hook up socket, and the hook up lead plug, to provide a weatherproof socket to connect a granny charger.
