I posted in the DIY section, so my expertise is limited, I am not in the trade. So, in other words, I don't know 😁👍

Thanks, was thinking of getting a head start by running the cable and getting the electrician to do the connections. Originally I thought I could do a DIY version but all I have is doubt now, so will leave the complete job and have a rethink

Not sure, will need to check

This is what the caravan CU looks like

Good morning, I'm looking for some advice. I have a static caravan, and recently, when I visit I have taken to using the granny charger overnight with a cable passed through a window. Ideally, I would like an externally rated socket attatched to my deck for this purpose. Once the socket is...

Just a quick hello 👍
