Best Caravan Hook Up Cables
Caravanning is having a renaissance right now, and many couples and families are looking for stress-free holidays where they can take a home-from-home on wheels with them wherever they choose to go.
For anyone new to owning a caravan, one of the most important things you will need to sort out is a way to run your caravan on electricity. Just about every caravan and camping site will have a mains power supply that you can connect with, but you will need to buy the right equipment to do so.
You will need to buy a set of good quality caravan hook up cables with a decent length of extension cord to comfortably reach between your caravan electrical inlet and the caravan pitch electrical outlet.
You simply take your caravan electric hook up cable and insert the (female) connector into your caravan inlet. Then you take the (male) plug end of the cable and insert it into the site outlet socket, turning it clockwise until it locks into place.
Once both ends of the electric hook up cable are secure, you can switch on your Caravan Isolating Switch to allow the power to flow. Remember to always SWITCH OFF your Caravan Isolating Switch before disconnecting your power cable from the mains.
