2 Outlet Power Board | Flush Mount | Black | Plug & Play GPO | AllSpark

Why can't I just fit a house power point?

Plenty of people grab a standard power point from the hardware store and plan to wire it into the canopy. Here's the problem: mounting a hardwired GPO is licensed electrician work - anyone can run an extension cord, but only a sparky can legally mount a power point. And household power points are single-pole switched anyway, where the wiring standard for vehicles and caravans (AS/NZS 3001.2) requires double-pole switching.

The extension lead workaround isn't much better: trip hazards, coiled leads heating up under load, and daisy-chained boards that were never designed for vehicle vibration and dust.

The AllSpark Power Board is the legal DIY path, because it connects by plug and socket - not fixed wiring - you can install it easily yourself. It's electrically certified, double-pole switched to comply with the wiring standard, and has a 10A overcurrent circuit breaker built in.

Plug & play install - anyone can fit it

The reason this is genuinely DIY? There's no wiring, no crimping, no terminating. The board connects with IEC plugs (the same style as a kettle cord), so there are no live terminals and nothing to hardwire. Use a hole saw to drill a 90–92mm hole, pop the power board in, screw on the collar and plug it in. Sorted in an afternoon, no dramas.

Plug it straight into your inverter, or use the piggyback lead to share an outlet. A 4m extension lead is available if the inverter's mounted away from where you want the power.

What can I run?

If it plugs into a normal power board at home, it plugs into this - coffee machine, laptop chargers, air fryer, camera batteries, induction cooktop and more.

Mount it in the canopy side wings, next to your drawer system, in the back of the wagon or in your camp kitchen. It's also perfect for study desks and bed heads, plugging into an existing wall socket and running power to where you need it - no more power boards knocked off the night stand or reaching under the bed to reach the socket.
