Electrical socket
Is it possible to spur off my single electrical socket and put another one elsewhere in my van?

Re: Electrical socket
Yes
Why not put a lead back to the consumer unit after the new socket thus making a ring main. That way any voltage drop, (neglible) and current draw is equalised and if power is lost to one side of the system both sockets still work.
