Towing a caravan

Hi- I've just joined the great unwashed and purchased a caravan. Do I have to have twin electric sockets on the car? I've got a boat trailer that I tow so have single point electrics- is that ok for a caravan or not?
Many thanks
Neil

Single 12N 7-pin or the 13-pin? Take a quick look here: http://www.towbarexpress.co.uk/socket-types You will have at least the minimum required, but depending on what you have you may need an adaptor. Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Thank you so much that was very useful. I've got 13 pin single on the car so it looks like that's all i need.

Thanks again- I owe you a pint.

if the caravan has twin 12s 12n electrics (new ones have 13pin) then you can obtain converters

Caravan has 13 pin too- driven it round on a private road and all the lights are working a treat. Time to brave the real road!

We always stayed on small certified sites as we liked the peace and quiet Cool

Northfield farm at Water Eaton is great if visiting Oxford

Poole bank farm is nice for Otley area especially if you like red kites Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Round hill site in the New Forest is fab- although electric hook ups are scarce
