Default Re: Wire van fridge for 12v

Probably not such a drama when actually towing but certain Aussie 12v/240v frigs are not CE approved. Which is a pain when parked on 12v.

I found this out when I bought an Engel front door model for a motorhome and it caused me no end of grief with radio / CB radio and TV interference until the penny dropped and had to install a RF blocker ring around the power line. Also had a similar model in a yacht and it caused
radio / navigational interference as well when ever the motor would kick in.

After much research I found Engel are one of the few who's frigs are not CE approved and are not approved for fitment in boats.

As others have said a simple Anderson style plug separate from your other hitch wiring would be the go.
