Can you help please

Do you know what amps the hook up is?

Is your heating on a high setting?

as for your lights they will be 12volt probably leds so will  be taking very little power fro m the 12v system

ps have the owners mentioned your type of problems before?

Hi. It has gone off again. Only thing on is heating and one light. Any advice welcome

Hi Jvb66

The owner said it is 10 amp

yes heating is high so we have turned down now

the owner said the problem is with new caravans

thanks for the advice

Are there any others on the Cl ? can you try another hookup?

The owner has just come back to say he needs to lock the cupboard back up. This seems strange. I wonder if this is all safe

That’s what I would do plug into another ehu socket

WE can never have our heating on 3kw on a CL and get away with it so we never put it up over 2kw. Hopefully you are sorted now you have turned it down. Presumably you also had the fridge on?

New caravans? sorry cannot understand that sounds as if they have a problem

Here’s a link to a similar topic of another forum, Trevor. You may be able to work out if you’re overloading the EHU.

Do you know what ampage the site offers? Some are as low as 6amps, which won’t allow you to do everything all at once. Some kettles trip bollards out very easily as well. 

You sound quite experienced regarding CLs, but some bollards offered cannot cope with lots of electrical devices operating together. Your fridge/freezer will be working off hook up, is water heater on, is TV on, is microwave in use, do you have any devices charging, do you use a low wattage kettle, what level of heating do you have on? It’s a process of elimination.

We found we couldn’t use our electric kettle on one site, but it coped easily with everything else. Might depend on number of outfits on site as well. We shared a bollard with a brand spanking new van that was all electrical, even down to Glade plug in, they just didn’t get the “how to stop the electrics tripping” equation at all.
