Hi Jim,

Had a good conversation with Simon who in explaining how the system works let me know that the problem may be with the smaller 110V to 240V transformer. With everything switched off the larger 240V to 110V transformer along with the charger circuit is working. This does not trip the mains.

It only trips the house when I switch the smaller one on which provides to the ring around the RV.

When I can get to the transformer I will check it out and if there is a problem they will send me a new one. As an electronics engineer it is easier for me to replace it if necessary rather than take it back to Telford. They have a test bench and test to make sure it does not trip when carrying out their habitation checks so if there is a problem it is more than likely been caused by lack of use. I know this vehicle was sitting around for a while. My driving it for 3 and a half hours may have rattled something loose.

I did speak to Simon about your statement regarding working on vehicles not sold by them. They are always happy to look at any vehicle and will quote accordingly. Simon did go into an explanation of other people importing and not carrying out correct conversions. I am sure we know what he means as we have all seen this sort of thing.

I also spoke to him about a leak that had been in the new RV which had obviously been repaired. He explained that once I mentioned it, they set up a rig with sprinkler and then left it for two hours to see if there was still a leak. Now that is a very good test from someone not frightened to find a problem and deal with it!

Best regards

Chris
