Hello we have a European Elddis Affinity 530, and we want to go to England in June, do we need a separate plug to get power to the campsite ???

    Generally the plug and socket used for Electric Hook Up in the UK is the same as that used in Europe.

    Some European sites may still have a different hook up on the post. I'd advise you get a "European Mains Hook Up Euro-Plug Adaptor " lead, Just cut and paste this it into your search engine. It's a female end to match your cable with a short led into a 2 pin plug.

    We have used ours possibly 6 times in 20 years, but for £6/8 it is worth carrying.

    The OP is coming from Europe into the UK not vice versa.

    Just so you can see... this is what you need to plug in to the electric bollard on UK sites....

    Janklijn managed to quote me in Dutch ...  I'd have been impressed with myself if I had! 😂😂

    I was totally impressed. Not to mention flummoxed as I couldn't find your post. But then nothing surprises me on this forum 🤣. In fact if it translates itself.............
