If you are wiring up a van or fixing a cabin wall, the Clipsal 449AWE mounting block gives a neat spot for a single power point. The one gang layout lines up with standard Clipsal outlet plates and keeps your 240V gear sitting flat on thin panels or ply. You just fix the block to the wall, run the cable through, and bolt the power point straight into the brass threads.

The block uses moulded electrical-grade plastic in a clean white finish that matches most Clipsal outlets. Brass inserts hold the two mounting screws firm, so the outlet does not move when you plug in heavier 10A leads. The solid back gives you room to route cable without sharp metal edges. It is simple gear, but for caravans, sheds or annexes with no recessed wall box, it is a smart buy that keeps the setup tidy.

Q: Can this mounting block be used in a caravan or RV?

Yes, this Clipsal 449AWE block suits caravan and RV interiors where walls are thin or have no cavity. The solid plastic body sits on top of panel or ply walls. It gives enough depth for 240V outlets without cutting a large recess. A licensed electrician must complete all 240V wiring in caravans and RVs.

Q: What type of power point or switch fits this block?

This block fits standard one gang Clipsal power points and switches with matching screw centres. The brass inserts accept the accessory mounting screws already supplied with Clipsal outlets. You simply line up the mechanism holes with the inserts. Then you tighten the screws until the faceplate sits flush on the block.

Q: Do I need extra brackets or a metal wall box with this block?

No, this moulded block replaces a metal or recessed wall box for surface mounting. The block itself provides the cavity for cable entry and terminations. You still need suitable fixings to attach the block to the wall material. Always follow local electrical rules when mounting and wiring the outlet.

Q: Can this block be used on masonry or brick walls?

Yes, it can be mounted to brick or masonry using appropriate wall plugs and screws. The flat back of the block sits against the surface to support the outlet. Drill suitable holes in the wall and insert approved anchors. Then fasten the block firmly before fitting the power point or switch.

Suitable for mounting standard size Clipsal one gang 240V accessories in caravans, RVs and similar installations.

Installs between the surface and the power point or switch to provide stand-off from the wall.

Requires compatible Clipsal one gang outlet or switch mechanism and correct 240V wiring by a licensed electrician.

Mounts to a solid surface using appropriate fixings for the wall material.

Use where a recessed wall box is not available or practical.
