Hi People - the plots thickens!!
Sorry to bring this up again. Thanks for all your help with this last week.
Today in the mail I received my receipts and booking letter, which specifies the rules even further:
Rules are:
.......
1. Electricity connection to a movable dwelling (yes tent does fit into this category) must only be by a single 15 amp lead, not less than 10 metres in length which has 15 amp connections fitted. Any lead longer than 10 metres must comply with Table 5.1 Maximum lengths of supplys leaders, of AS/NZS 3001:2001
2. In addition, no electricity will be supplied to a tent unless an earth leakage switch (
RCD), providing not less than IPX4 degree of protection is fitted to the supply lead and/or to the portable outlet, and the
RCD device is shown to the caretaker when checking in.
.......
So then, I need a 10 metre 15 amp lead, that will plug into an
RCD (that fits the above specifications), and to that hopefully I will be able to plug in regular 10 amp things like an electric frypan, hairdryer, or phone charger.
Have I got it right. Will I be able to plug regular 10 amp things into the
RCD? Is it like a powerboard?
Just incase anyone is interested I'm staying at one of the Tweed Holiday parks
http://www.tchp.com.au/, I think they all have the same rules.
I really don't need power for this trip, but I think if this is how caravan parks are becoming now, it is going to be wise for me to buy these things, so I can have them ready for future trips. So I just want to get it right.
Thanks
