What to Compare Before Buying
- Connector type: Check that your vehicle or equipment uses a 16A hook-up connection and that you need a UK 3 pin plug at the other end.
- Cable length: The lead is approximately 30 cm, so it suits close connections rather than longer runs.
- Supply type: Compare the stated 230 V rating with the power supply you plan to use.
- Use case: This is for connecting to a domestic socket, so confirm that matches the way you want to power or charge your equipment.
What Else You May Need
You will still need a suitable domestic socket and compatible 16A hook-up connection on the leisure vehicle or equipment. Check the exact plug and connector arrangement before choosing an offer.
Before You Decide
Confirm the 16A to 13A connection format, the approximately 30 cm lead length and the 230 V rating before choosing an offer. Make sure the plug and connector match the equipment you want to use.
