DIY 240v interconnecting cables, rated up to 20amp, 1000mm, CMS
CMS cable
CMS products provide a DIY 240V wiring solution for your
RV.
This is a connecting cable that fits all
CMS products. It comes in various lengths as shown in the title.
Each cable has a female and male end so they cannot be connected incorrectly.
Each connection has a security clip that can only be separated by manual manipulation,
they will never come adrift within the wall provided they are pushed tight until
the clip engages.
The rating of the cables exceeds the 15amp supply provided
to RV's. The number of cables and power points should be limited to
either 10 double power points or 12 single power points per circuit,
however your electrician may vary this depending of expected loads. For example
an electric stove would reduce this number. In any event the circuit will be
physically limited to 16amps by the 16amp circuit breaker.
Cables should be longer than the distance between power points.
As a general rule allow 300mm extra, but even more will not
harm. Remember the cables clip in facing down from the power point within the
wall, so branching off to a power point above will require curving the cable
back up.
Cables can be joined using a CMS double adapter. See dimensions
of double adapters. Each cable end has a cross section of 25mm x 16mm.
Image shown is of a 1500mm cable. The licence electrician
will cut the first cable to insert the 16amp double pole circuit breaker or
16amp RCD as well as connect the earth wire to the chassis.
Cables should not be placed near any sharp edges which may
damage the outer sheath. 240V outlets cannot be placed within certain distances
of a shower or bath, your electrician can advise. Ensure cables are securely
clipped together and inspected by your electrician before completing
cladding.
If running power below floor to the other side of the RV
it must be enclosed within the chassis or conduit.
