Jaros said:Bunnings sell 15A cable:
3 x 1.5mm flexible extra heavy duty cable
Wide blade earth terminal for 15A outlets
15A clear moulded plug and socket for easy safety inspection
Extra heavy duty 15A cable is designed to withstand the most rugged applications. Heavier gauge conductors reduce voltage drop
Ideal for caravan and campsites, or high power appliances
Leafs said:Thanks Jaros I bought one of them from Bunnings . Would not plug into the van . The male conection on the van is flat,the female is for a rised male ( this is not a joke). So went bake to bunnings and they told me to cut the lip off the female part then it would work. J car told me the same. When i learn how to put photos up i will . thanks Bob

Any sparky can test and tag, if you or a neighbour has got one doing some work they should do it for a 6 pack.
Tathradj said:The lip not only serves as a weather proof cover.
It stops the pins from being slightly exposed when
the plug backs out a bit.
On some plugs you can see some black insulation
on the back of the pins.
The converter Goody talks about is a good one.
Not only does it convert the plugs around,
It is fitted with a safety cut out if you exceed the 10
amp rating.
A lot of folk's use a "Cheater "
Dangerous and illegal.
