Caravan DIY 240V from caravans plus http://caravansplus.com.au/catalog/inde ... 2_1060_962 i can deff vouch for , ive used it in my bus and am verry happy with it , BE AWARE THAT A SPARKIE MUST DO THE FINAL CONECTION TO THE RGD
from the site
CMS products allow the DIY builder to fit many of the 240V cables and power points into the walls of the motorhome or Caravan during construction, and therefore limit the onsite time of a qualified electrican to the final connection and testing.

How it works
A standard set-up includes the CMS power inlet that accepts a CMS 240v cable. This first cable is cut and an **ELECTRICAN MUST insert a 16amp circuit breaker or 16amp RCD into the cable BEFORE the cable continues to the rear of the first power point. A second cable then also connects to the rear of the first power point and heads off to the next power point. This continues around the RV. You can also place a double adapter into the rear of a power point (extra recess space required) or at the junction of two cables. From here you can branch a new line off the original. This is ideal if you need a low and high power point on one wall, or you wish to start a new line on the other side of the RV. The last power point in a line uses the inlet only and the outlet stays available for future use. You can also end the circuit with an external OUTLET for use outside under your awning.

All power points include double pole switches to comply with Recreational Vehicle requirements.

Lights and light switches are now almost always installed as 12V and can be installed safely by most DIY builders.

All CMS components we sell comply to Australian and NZ standards for installation in Recreational vehicles. AS/NZ 3112, AS/NZ 61535.1 Int):2001 AS/NZ 3000:2000, 250V 50HZ 20amp. A maximum of 10 double or 12 single points can be included in a single circuit.

In addition, a 15amp Circuit breaker or 15amp RCD must be included in each electrical circuit. The circuit breakers are not part of the CMS range at this stage and MUST be fitted by a qualified electrican.
These components are now used by a number of Australia RV manufacturers due to their ease of use.

In designing your cable requirements and installation be mindfull that each cable has a sealed ends that measures 25mm x 16mm. So if it cannot be installed before sheeting it must be able to be fitted thru frame members. All cables have a female and male end to prevent errors in connecting the cables. All fittings have a security clip so once connected they require manual manipulation to separate. Each power point requires a recess depth of 32mm. Mounting blocks are available where the power point cannot be recessed as described. The cables have an outer sheath and when placed within walls should allow extra length for removal of the power point in case replacement is required.

These products are very good quality.
