CMS 240VAC 15A White External Power Inlet with 16A RCD and IP44

Integrated 240V Caravan Mains Power Inlet and Safety Switch

Bringing 240V mains power into a caravan, motorhome, or camper trailer requires a secure, weather-resistant connection point that prioritises electrical safety. The CMS Electracom 15A AC Power External Inlet combines a standard Australian 15A 3-pin male power inlet with an integrated 16A Residual Current Device (RCD) into a single, compact external enclosure. This all-in-one configuration streamlines installation by eliminating the need to mount a separate internal safety switch enclosure, saving valuable cupboard and wall space inside your recreational vehicle.

Engineered to connect directly to a heavy-duty 15A caravan extension lead, this external power inlet provides a dedicated entry point for shore power or generator connections. The built-in 16A RCD monitors the electrical circuit and is designed to trip rapidly in the event of an earth fault or current leakage, reducing the risk of electric shock and protecting downstream 240V appliances and battery chargers.

Key Features and Benefits

• All-in-One Design: Integrates a 15A 240V AC male inlet and a 16A RCD safety switch into a single unit, reducing installation complexity and saving interior space.
• Weatherproof Dual Lids: Equipped with dual flip-up covers that protect both the 15A inlet pins and the RCD toggle switch from water splash and dust ingress.
• Durable Outdoor Housing: Constructed from UV-stabilised white plastic to resist yellowing, cracking, and degradation when exposed to harsh Australian sunlight.
• IP44 Ingress Protection: Rated to protect against solid objects over 1mm and water splashes from any direction when the protective covers are closed.
• Secure Surface Mounting: Features four pre-drilled mounting points for straightforward, rigid fastening to caravan cladding, service bodies, or tiny home exteriors.

Built for Australian Touring and Harsh Environments

Standard residential electrical enclosures often struggle with the constant vibration, dust, and extreme UV exposure experienced during off-grid travel and touring. This CMS Electracom inlet is specifically built for exterior mobile applications. The UV-stabilised white housing blends cleanly with traditional white caravan and motorhome panelling while maintaining its structural integrity over time.

The unit features independent flip-up covers for the 15A socket and the RCD breaker. This allows you to inspect or reset the safety switch easily without disconnecting the power lead, while maintaining weather resistance across the enclosure.

Applications and Installation Notes

This external AC power inlet is suited for a wide range of mobile and transportable 240V electrical installations, including:

• Caravans, pop-tops, and camper trailers
• Motorhomes, campervans, and 5th wheelers
• Mobile workspaces, food trucks, and site offices
• Tiny homes and transportable cabins
• Service vehicles requiring external 240V shore power

Please note: This unit is an external power inlet component and does not constitute a complete RV electrical system. As a 240V mains electrical device, installation and wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with relevant Australian Standards (such as AS/NZS 3000 and AS/NZS 3001).
