The SkyEnergi Caravan & Motorhome Consumer Unit with 25A RCD and 6A/16A MCBs is a compact 230V mains distribution and protection system designed for campervans, motorhomes, caravans and other leisure vehicles. Providing a central point for distributing mains electricity, it helps protect electrical circuits against earth leakage, overloads and short circuits.
Featuring a 25A Type A RCD and two pre-installed double-pole MCBs rated at 6A and 16A, the consumer unit provides protection for two separate mains circuits. The double-pole breakers disconnect both live and neutral conductors, making them particularly suitable for leisure vehicle electrical installations.
Manufactured from flame-resistant ABS with a translucent protective cover, the unit offers a compact and practical solution for managing 230V electrical distribution within campervans and motorhomes.
Key Features

Installation & Compatibility
The SkyEnergi Consumer Unit is designed for fixed installation within campervans, motorhomes, caravans and other leisure vehicles requiring protected 230V mains electrical distribution.
The incoming mains supply connects through the 25A RCD, providing residual current protection for the two outgoing circuits. The pre-installed 16A and 6A double-pole MCBs provide individual overcurrent protection for connected electrical equipment.
The consumer unit is suitable for use as part of a correctly designed electric hook-up installation, supplying compatible mains appliances, sockets and lighting circuits.
Installation must be carried out by a suitably competent person in accordance with the applicable electrical regulations, including BS 7671 Section 721 where relevant.
Important: The 25A RCD rating represents its current-carrying capacity, not its residual-current trip sensitivity. The RCD trip rating and suitability for the intended installation should be verified before fitting.
Supplied With: Consumer unit enclosure, pre-installed 25A Type A RCD, 16A double-pole Type C MCB, 6A double-pole Type C MCB and translucent protective cover.

Frequently Asked Questions
The SkyEnergi 25A Consumer Unit provides electrical protection and power distribution for 230V mains installations in campervans, motorhomes and caravans. It features a 25A Type A RCD and two double-pole miniature circuit breakers, helping protect electrical circuits against earth leakage, overloads and short circuits.
Yes. The SkyEnergi Consumer Unit is designed for leisure vehicle electrical installations, making it suitable for campervan conversions, motorhomes and caravans. It can form part of a 230V electric hook-up system, providing protection for two separate mains circuits when correctly installed.
The 25A RCD monitors the electrical supply for residual current caused by earth leakage faults, while the 6A and 16A MCBs protect individual circuits against overloads and short circuits. The RCD provides additional protection against electric shock, while the MCBs help prevent excessive current from damaging electrical wiring and equipment.
The 6A circuit is commonly suitable for lower-current equipment such as mains lighting, while the 16A circuit can supply appropriately designed socket or appliance circuits. The connected electrical loads, cable sizes and circuit protection must be selected according to the installation requirements and available mains supply capacity.
Yes. The SkyEnergi Consumer Unit includes two double-pole Type C MCBs rated at 6A and 16A. Double-pole breakers disconnect both live and neutral conductors, providing an effective means of circuit isolation for compatible caravan and motorhome electrical installations.
Yes. The SkyEnergi 25A Consumer Unit can be incorporated into a correctly designed 230V campsite electric hook-up installation. It provides RCD and MCB protection for the vehicle's mains electrical circuits. The installation must include appropriate earthing, cabling and electrical protection in accordance with applicable regulations.
A Type A RCD is designed to detect alternating residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents. This makes it suitable for many modern electrical installations containing electronic equipment. However, the correct RCD type and trip sensitivity must be selected according to the connected equipment and applicable electrical regulations.
Yes. The SkyEnergi Caravan & Motorhome Consumer Unit is supplied with a pre-installed 25A Type A RCD, one 16A double-pole Type C MCB and one 6A double-pole Type C MCB. The flame-resistant ABS enclosure also includes a translucent protective cover, providing a convenient solution for leisure vehicle mains distribution.
