Hi all
I have no mains power when plugged into mains, everything works on 12v.
I have been advised to look for a 20amp fuse on the battery cables as power is getting to the RCD.
Just can't seem to find it.
It's a Compass Corona 2007.
thanks in advance
Hello Mark,
The 20A fuse on the 12V battery system has absolutely nothing to do with the 230V ac mains supply, so I do not know why you are trying to find the 20A fuse?
The loss of mains in a caravan when power is reaching the RCD is very rare, so your report is somewhat perplexing. Exactly how do you know 230V ac power is getting to the caravans RCD?
If you are using the EHU with a 13A plug adaptor, check the fuse in the 13A plug.
Double check that the EHU cable is properly plugged into the sites power system and and the caravan, and check that is turned on at the source and in the caravans RCD and MCB's. Press the RCD test button, and if its working the RCD should switch off. If it doesn't, it either means you don't have power or the RCD is faulty.
Assuming you are correct about the power at the input to the caravans RCD is correct, then if you are not getting power to any of the 230V sockets or appliances' check the position of the RCD and MCB switches are up ( and stay up) for on.
If the switches appear to be on and you are still not getting power to any of the 230V appliance's or lights, then it suggests the RCD itself could be faulty.
If you are not fully competent with electrics it is strongly advised you seek professional help.
