Designed specifically for the demands of mobile and off-grid environments, this all-in-one external unit combines a recessed 3-pin male connector with an integrated 16A Residual Current Device (RCD), streamlining your electrical installation and providing critical circuit protection at the point of entry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you are fitting out a new caravan, upgrading a camper trailer, or building a custom service body, bringing 240V AC mains power into a vehicle requires strict adherence to electrical safety standards. By housing the safety switch directly beside the power inlet, this unit eliminates the need to mount a separate internal RCD enclosure, saving valuable interior cupboard and wall space while simplifying the wiring process for your licensed electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIntegrated Circuit Protection and Weatherproof Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen connecting your RV to caravan park mains or an external inverter generator, protecting both the occupants and the onboard electrical system from earth leakage and overcurrent faults is essential. The built-in 16A RCD acts as the primary safety barrier, immediately isolating the 240V AC supply if a fault is detected. A dedicated transparent, hinged inspection window sits over the RCD, allowing you to visually verify the switch status at a glance and easily reset the breaker without exposing the internal components to the elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstructed for exterior vehicle mounting, the durable black enclosure features dual hinged flip covers that provide an \u003cstrong\u003eIP44 ingress protection rating\u003c\/strong\u003e when closed. This shields the recessed 15A male pins and the RCD mechanism from splashing water, rain, and road dust during transit or while parked at a campsite. The sleek black finish integrates cleanly with modern dark-themed caravan cladding, aluminium composite panels, and contemporary automotive paintwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features and Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll-in-One Power Entry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Combines a 240V AC 15A male inlet with a 16A RCD in a single exterior housing, reducing internal space requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecessed 3-Pin Connector:\u003c\/strong\u003e Safely accepts standard Australian 15A heavy-duty extension leads for reliable shore power or generator hook-ups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClear RCD Inspection Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allows effortless visual checks of the safety switch status and easy manual operation when required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIP44 Weather Resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual hinged outer covers protect the electrical terminals from water splashes and solid debris in outdoor conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlug-and-Play Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engineered to integrate seamlessly with CMS Electracom modular wiring systems, reducing installation complexity compared to standard hardwired alternatives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModern Black Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e UV-stabilised, dark exterior casing complements modern RV, motorhome, and commercial vehicle aesthetics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eImportant Note on Current Supply Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note that this product is currently supplied as a \u003cstrong\u003eJ-Series unit complete with a short adapter lead\u003c\/strong\u003e to convert from the J-Series connection to a C-Series cable.
