INCOMING MAINS CONSUMER UNIT (Pre Assembled)
This is a small mains consumer unit that runs from the surface mount 16A hook up point on the outside of your van and feeds the input of the inverter. This protects the inverter from any power surges and overloads and is the first point of safety, providing an earth to both the inverter body and the chassis of your camper van.
