Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is an Anderson plug and why is it used in caravans?

Anderson plugs are heavy-duty connectors designed to handle high current applications. In caravans, they’re most commonly used for connecting batteries, solar panels, or powering fridges. The 50A and 175A variants offer flexibility depending on the system's power needs, and genuine Anderson plugs ensure a secure and long-lasting connection.

Are Red Smoke smoke alarms compliant with Australian standards?

Yes, Red Smoke alarms sold by Electrotraders meet relevant Australian safety standards. Whether you choose a 240v mains-powered model with backup battery, a standalone 9v battery model, or a wireless RF interconnectable unit, you’re purchasing a product designed for Australian residential and mobile dwellings.

Why use snap bushes in caravan wiring?

Snap bushes are used to protect wiring as it passes through metal or plastic panels. In caravans and RVs, they reduce wear and tear on cabling caused by vibration and movement, preventing electrical shorts and damage over time.

What’s the difference between the PVC insulation tapes listed?

All our electrical PVC insulation tapes are 18mm wide and 20m long, but they come in a variety of colours for identification during wiring jobs. We stock both single rolls and packs of 10, ideal for high-volume users. They're suitable for bundling, insulating, and colour-coding electrical wires to meet general wiring practices in Australia.

Can I use a mini junction box like the MJB-4 for caravan installations?

Yes, the MJB-4 Mini TPS Junction Box is compact and ideal for tight spaces commonly found in caravan builds. It’s suitable for low-voltage installations and provides a safe and tidy connection point for TPS cable runs.

Is the IP66 adaptable box suitable for outdoor use?

Absolutely. The PEG10105 waterproof adaptable box is rated IP66, meaning it's protected against dust and powerful water jets. It’s perfect for external caravan wiring where weather resistance is crucial.
