Ok, it's quite simple once you get the hang of it.
1. In most cases, you will have a switch panel which gives you the option of using the leisure battery or the starter battery to power the habitation electrics. Always use the Leisure setting except in emergency.
The leisure battery is charged when the engine is running or when connected to the mains. Normally the starter battery is NOT charged by the mains.
2. The fridge only works on 12V when the engine is running, but generally, the gas ignition for the fridge & cooker is wired permanently to the leisure battery.
3. Generally you will find separate switches and fuses for lights, pump etc.
