Description
Overview:
The 12S 7-Pin Pre-Wired Socket Assembly, 2m Grey Cable (MPN 761 579) is a complete auxiliary towbar socket kit for UK twin-electrics setups. It arrives pre-terminated with a 2 metre (approx. 6ft 7in) 7-core grey auxiliary cable, and includes a flexible mounting gasket plus three fixing bolts for straightforward installation on a standard towbar socket plate. The 12S (S-type) socket provides the secondary functions often required alongside a primary 12N lighting socket, such as fridge feed, battery charging and reverse circuits on caravans. It is suitable for use on tow cars, vans, pickups and light commercial vehicles towing caravans, plant trailers or other trailers that use supplementary 12V circuits. The pre-wired loom reduces join points and speeds up fitting, while the grey colour follows the UK convention for identifying the auxiliary socket in a twin-socket system.
Key Features:
- 7-pin 12S (auxiliary) socket assembly for UK twin-electrics systems
- Pre-wired 7-core cable, 2m (approx. 6ft 7in) length for flexible routing
- Grey auxiliary cable and socket to match UK 12S identification
- Flexible mounting gasket supplied for a neat, sealed installation
- Three fixing bolts included for standard towbar socket plates
- Supports supplementary functions such as fridge, charging and reverse (vehicle dependent)
- Standard 7-pin socket format compatible with UK 12S trailer plugs
Typical Applications:
Used as the auxiliary (secondary) towbar socket on vehicles equipped with twin electrics when towing caravans or trailers that require additional 12V services beyond road lighting. Commonly fitted on tow cars, fleet vans and pickups for caravan fridge power, leisure battery charging and reverse lamp functions, and on plant or equipment trailers that use supplementary circuits. Mounts to a standard towbar socket plate using the supplied bolts and gasket, with the 2m (approx. 6ft 7in) cable providing reach for routing to the vehicle's wiring take-off point.
