Caravan hook up
Former Community Member
Hi I am fitting a caravan hook up on the wall next to the dno incomer box. No wires exposed. Do I still require an earth rod. The earth bond will be prob 1 ft long inside so not exposed. I know if I fit the box away using swa then yes earth rod would be used.
Good afternoon, thank you for everyone's posts. I really do understand this but caravans on sites hook ups are earth roded. But caravans are not from the hook up to the caravan. So for 100% protection caravans should have an earth rod fitted and connected to its chassis to make it safe at its parked postion in a field. Not just at the site hook up point.
The chassis of a caravan is connected to the earth at the hook up. There is no need for another one.
