Master Troubleshooting & Diagnostics Matrix
| Error Code / Indicator | Symptom / Meaning | Possible Cause | Step-by-Step DIY Fix | Suggested Actions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
N/A | A miniature circuit breaker (MCB) on the mains unit has tripped to the OFF position | A fault has developed in the 230V circuit protected by that MCB, or too many appliances are drawing power at once. | Eliminate the fault (or reduce the load) before re-setting — switch the MCB back to the ON position. | DIY Safe |
N/A | The RCD (residual current device) does not switch off when the test button marked 'T' is pressed | The RCD unit itself is faulty. | Do NOT use the mains supply system. Call a qualified electrician. | Professional Intervention Required |
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much can I safely run at once on my caravan mains hook-up without tripping the site supply?
Most UK campsite hook-up bollards cap out at 16 amps, and some sites abroad only offer as little as 5 amps - go over whatever your particular pitch provides and you'll trip their breaker, not just a fuse in the caravan, so it's worth asking the site what your pitch is actually rated for before you plug in. As a rough guide to what's drawing power at once: a fridge on electric typically pulls around 0.5 amps, a TV about 2.5 amps, the battery charger roughly 1 amp, a microwave close to 10 amps, air conditioning around 4 amps, and a blown-air or convection heater about 8.7 amps.
Add up whatever you're planning to run together and keep the total comfortably under your site's stated limit.
