Using an electric hook-up in your tent, campervan, caravan or motorhome may seem daunting the first time you use it but once you get used to it, you’ll wonder how you coped before!
Using an electric hook could mean a few more home comforts on your camping holiday. Just think cold milk with your breakfast, a heater to take the chill off, a quick boiling kettle or toaster and the ability to charge your phone!
So, what is an electric hook-up?
An electric hook-up offers you electricity in your tent, motorhome, caravan or campervan with the help of a mains connection cable and a few sockets.
Using an electrical supply cable, you’ll receive an electrical supply just as you would at home. Most campsites now have hook-up points – just ask for a pitch with access when you book.
But it’s important to understand that caravan and camping hook-ups are designed for light power loads only.
