Frankly, if you need to ask the question in your OP, then you need to get a qualified electrician to check the van over and make repairs.

The OP asked for advice not criticism!
Having receiced some advice they can enquire ,if they are unable to do it themselves,from electricians or a caravan workshop what the possible price for the repair s.

Bit out of order guys.

Not everone is a master of all trades.

yes get a new plug, or socket depending on whch end is burnt out, strip wiring back and make a clean connection, if you have the van stored at home run it and see what happens. ie running it as if you were away.

13 amp plugs and sockets can do the same in your  home if not wired correctly, and pulling close to the max amp, and before anyone says the 17 edition makes you an electrition are wrong they are,anybody can take that exam to read, and understand the regs but cant do the job.

is that each end of the cable or including the socket on the caravan?

If so thats 3 that need changing, i read it as one being burnt out not 3, but your right Saxo change the lot and go from there.

But the site amperage could also have caused this, let us know how you go on.

HI Saxo

Sorry you where right, but if your doing it cahnge all 3. Then test over a day or couple of days with everything on.
