I work at a trailer manufacturing facility and we have received some orders for trailers that have 230V 50HZ electrical wiring for a European country. The supplies have been ordered for the outlets and other hookups, but we have been unable to source a breaker box and shore cords. Is there a good source for these parts? Any help that I can get would be much appreciated.

I don't have your answer, but I have to wonder... Isn't there a trailer manufacturer's trade association that you're a member of? Surely, they'd have that information on where to source those parts.

The NATM which govern US trailer manufacturing does have certain guidelines that electrical and all other components need to be built to in order to pass code and get the NATM approval. All of the codes and information for the NATM pertain to US regulations and guidelines which we are very familiar with, but the European electrical is a lot harder for us to source parts and information. If there is another European Electrical forum either that anyone knows of that would be very beneficial. Thanks for your help.

You could try CITY ELECTRICAL FACTORS. A UK based distributor with a US east coast network of electrical wholesale outlets. Or try Farnell Electronics. They have a European desk. Or try the Trailer Manufacturer 'Winnebago'. They export to the United Kingdom and may be able to offer advice. Otherwise, come back to me and I will try and scource in the UK for you.
