[QUOTE="71Westy, post: 497912, member: 13278"] I did exactly that. I used the 110V inlet, but renewed all the wiring behind it (in trunking), off to a consumer unit with RCD. I then fed that to a socket in the engine bay for a 12V charger for the leisure battery. I took a second feed to a pair of sockets installed in the furniture. I have a 12V distribution system via a new fuse panel at the front of the bus (easier to route from than the back) which powers the 12V only fridge, the radio and the interior lights. And an intelligent split charge relay for charging on the go from the dynamo (which does appear to cope). You can see my build on my thread in the gallery. I suspect you really need a Part P qualified installer for the mains by the way - mind you I had a recall on my consumer unit and engineers came out to test it - they were a little perplexed at how to deal with a campervan installation!
