Hi does anybody know if the " wiring regs" allows metal faced plug sockets in campervans ? If yes (i cant see why not) do they have to be earthed any different? Thanks

Hi, metal plug sockets are fine and should not need any additional earthing. (Earth to the face plate should be built in to the socket).

Hope this helps.
