Anyone on here with knowledge or experience of wiring for a touring caravan/camping site, whose brains I can pick, please?
I may have to design and install supplies to a C and C club certified site. That's a maximum of 5 touring caravans or motorhomes, plus 10 tents.
There will be a sub main from the supply source to a small facilities block, and from there two strings of 7 x 16A sockets, arranged in pairs, each socket individually supplied from a RCBO.
Distance between pairs of sockets will be around 25m, so the furthest sockets will be around 180m from the facilities block.
What sort of current should I allow for each socket, and what loading should I assume when doing voltage drop calculations for the furthest sockets?
The ends of the two strings will only about 25m apart, so would it be better to install as a single ring?
