Morning all,
I recently bought my first Motorhome (Compass Kensington 194) on a Peugeot Boxer chassis.
I would like to improve its off-grid capability by increasing the solar and leisure battery capacity and perhaps changing the leisure battery to Lithium but before I start planning my upgrades I need to understand the existing electrical setup better and I'm struggling to find detailed information on the existing DC setup so ...

Does anyone have a detailed electrical diagram for my model ?
Firstly I want to know if I have a smart alternator and second how the charge is applied to the batteries ie is there a diode splitter, VSR or B-B to charge the leisure battery?

BTW I have found a basic electrical diagram for the Elddis Autoquest 194 which I believe is very similar but the diagram doesn't answer Q1 and just shows connections to the mysterious "PDU Lin50 Autoquest Accordo" without explaining the internal workings of the PDU.

Thanks in advance

............... if so, the here is the basic schematic diagram for the BCA unit.
The relays I will imagine are purposed by each van converter to suit their requirements, but hopefully it will give you something to go on.

Yes, thats the one (with the mains charger module in the top) - The diagram is just what I was after as a starting point
