Vehicle Electrical Requirements
Brake Controller
All MDC Campers require an electric brake controller to be tted to the tow vehicle by law.
There is a wide range of controllers available that are suitable.
Correct Vehicle Wiring for MDC Camper
To comply with national laws on breakaway systems, you must supply a maintenance charge to the battery/
batteries that power the system should it be activated. In all MDC products, the breakaway is powered by the
house batteries in the camper. For this purpose and Anderson plug connection is tted to all MDC campers on the
drawbar. Your vehicle will need to be tted with a power supply to a 50 amp Anderson plug near the towbar so the
trailer can be connected. The vehicle only needs to supply power while it is running so a voltage sensitive relay or
switching device may be used to protect the start battery when the car engine is stopped.
