Power supply for Victron IP22 (1 Viewer)

[Garry - June]

Is it possible to use a C13/C14 10a cable splitter on the mains power lead in to my Schaudt 220 EBL to take a supply to the Victron IP22 charger I am installing nearby..

I don't see any problem with that. The EBL 12V charger (18A) takes about 1A of 230V mains, so there's plenty left for another charger or two.

I did exactly that.

On a similar note, I have a sargent px300 mains charger originally connected to the EC500 PSU. I also have a victron IP22 30A mains charger connected directly to the leisure batteries and a vanbitz battery master. I disconnected the PX300 in favour of the victron, however, its occurred to me that I now have no way of charging the vehicle battery from ehu if the leisure battery is too low for the battery master to work. So, could I install a changeover switch to select the relevant mains charger as needed?

I am planning to install a simple on/off switch inline with the Victron charger so I can easily switch it off... I have lots of solar with Votronic controllers which have dedicated vehicle trickle charge outputs so hopefully I wont have to worry about the vehicle battery.
