Nova Caravan 12 Pin Plug Wiring Diagram

However there is an important downside.

Nova caravan 12 pin plug wiring diagram. Includes guides for 7 pin 6pin 5 pin 12 pin 13 pin pin and heavy duty round plugs and sockets. Tow vehicle initially used a flat 7 pin plug and powered the fridge when driving a van before the heritage. I am using the 12 pin plug socket and since i have a 12v fridge it is quite adequate but in hindsight i wish i had the anderson plug. A 12 pin plug is sometimes an alternative to an anderson plug if the caravanner wants just one electrical connection between car and van.

Put in a breakaway monitor and tow vehicle and heritage were wired with 12 pin plugs. The most popular anderson plug size is the 50a plug. The 12 pin flat plug have a second row of 5 larger points which will accept up to 6mm auto cable. However i would suggest you have a heavy duty 7 pin round plug socket and use the anderson plug for heavy current.

Just traded my jayco heritage van and update to a sterling. The sterling has only a 7 pin plug and obviously fitted into the 12 pin to tow home. The large pins on the narva 12 pin plug are rated at 35a. There have been slight variations over the years as most newer caravans control the battery charging in the caravan rather than from the towing vehicle.

The 12 pin plug can only take a 6mm diameter wire so it will not provide the charge of an anderson plug system.
