ARB fridge 240v plug
« on: September 28, 2013, 02:57:03 PM »
Can anyone with an ARB fridge check their 240v plug and see if it has an earth pin on it please.
I've left mine at home and just picked up an Engel plug but not sure if it will work.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers.

For anyone that runs into this problem the Engel 240v plug will work on an ARB fridge. Readily available from bcf for $20.
It's keeping the drinks cold so a small price to pay and better than a 3hr round trip home to get mine.
