Shore Power & Battery Charging

Recharge at the Campsite or Before Your Next Trip

Shore power connects your campervan to a suitable external mains supply. With the correct installation, it can power onboard AC circuits and recharge the leisure battery through a dedicated charger or inverter/charger.

Explore mains battery chargers, connection leads, inlets and related accessories. Select a charger with the correct output voltage and charging profile, and a charging current within the battery manufacturer’s limits.

A battery charger recharges the battery; it does not provide inverter power when mains electricity is disconnected. To run 230V appliances away from a hookup, you also need a suitable inverter or inverter/charger.

Planning a shore power installation? CH Marine can help identify compatible charging and connection equipment. The AC installation also requires suitable wiring, earthing and electrical protection.
