Grazy Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I have one of the above installed in my newly acquired 2002 Avondale avocet. It has three rocker switches on, one labelled carver heater and two labelled water heater. As far as I can make out there is only one water heater. Can anyone shed some light on this please. Can’t find a manual anywhere. thanks Grazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WispMan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Look at the head of this Avondale section and there are handbooks for 2001 and 2003. Yours will be similar. The topics are pinned to keep them at the top of this section of the forum.

My Avondale only has two switches - one for the heater and one for the water heater - so can't help you other than to say, dont switch either of them on till you've filled the water heater from the Aquaroll - otherwise you will burn out the element.

If this is the case then the individual coloured trip switches at the top right act like fuses and should all be in the "up" position when in use. The socket and space heater one should be 10 Amp rated, and the water heater charger and fridge 6 Amp. The yellow button at the top left is a test button and should trigger the black master switch adjacent to it - raise this switch again to reset. The two rocker switches below are normally green in colour, illuminate when on, and are the local isolator switches for the space heater (room heater) and the water heater respectively. The meter below should indicate the state of battery charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 That's interesting as the image I posted is what was fitted by Avondale at the time. Maybe you could post an image of what you have as it may be known under an alternative model number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing MK wise I can think of is that he's looking at a bit of MK kit, a switch or an MCB which would read MK 10A and is mistaking the A for a 4. At it's age it could have been replaced / modified with a mix and match with other components not made by ZIG. A bit remote but that's all I can think of, lets hope that he comes back with a photo so we can give him more help, but as in many instances like this..................................sadly, any more input ends here.

Guest Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 That's a thought Silversurf. I hadn't considered that MK may have related to the breaker manufacturer rather than the Zig unit complete - obvious now I come to think of it Anyway if Grazy can drop a picture into this thread I'm sure between us we'll be able to solve the mystery.
