Help, no electrics when plugged in (1 Viewer)

[lesleyjean]

Hope someone can help.
Electrics not working when plugged into mains power.
We have checked all the fuses and they are all fine.
Campsite said the problem is with us.
What else could be wrong?
Been raining constantly for 3 days.
The trip hadn't tripped at all, so no problem with the trip.
Stumped as to what it could be.
Help please

Have you found the trip inside your motorhome, it should have a test button to push to trip and then reset it.

Can you try another EHU point? If the circuit breakers haven't tripped in the MH then you should have power at your sockets. If all is good with the EHU check the lead, a wire might have been pulled out or broken. Borrow someone else's EHU lead to check.

Still nothing working.

Campsite won't let us try another elh

If nothing happens when you press the reset button or the earth trip button would suggest no power coming into the van.

Do you have a spare hook up lead you can try?

I'd ask an adjacent camper if you could borrow their cable and plug it into your van

 

[Zepp]

Ask the warden to plug his tester into the end of hookup lead before you put it into the van that way you will no if the cable is faulty

 

[Duck Truck]

Remember
When you reset The circuit breaker the switch should be in the UP position.

Not down as a normal light switch

Thank you

Just borrowed next doors power and it worked. The problem is not with us then. Thanks

 

[lesleyjean]

Thanks everyone for the help. It must be campsite or our lead as it worked with next doors power in their plug in.

 

[Duck Truck]

I suspect it's the lead
Unscrew the ends and see if any wire has come loose

Now try your lead from your van to the neighbours hook up point. That will then eliminate and tell you if it's the lead or the hook up on your pitch.
Sounds a crap campsite not to have given you the option to try another.

 

[Cal54]

Had similar problem and it turned out to be my cable - just check all the wiring to the pins.

 

[lesleyjean]

Thanks everyone for your super fast replies.
All working again.
Problem was with site, normal services have resumed.

Could you try using your cable in your neighbors EHU ( without anyone seeing)
That would prove if the cable is faulty

Result I trust they were suitably apologetic

An EHU lead can also be used to whip people with. Give it a try.

You can always get wet inside Lesley or go for a rooby murray.

Glad to know your juice is sorted and no doubt you've got the heating back on. Been reading on here that there have been lots of electricity interruptions up and down the Costa's

Ger a vest on. Regards to Alan
