you won't be able to run all items at the same time unless they are low voltage otherwise u will trip the electric, the cheapest place i've seen the hookup lead for sale is Towsure, i think it was about 55 pounds and has the built in trip switch, they have a web site, log onto www.ukcampsite.co.uk/redirect.asp?redir=http://www.towsure.com

sorry to correct you vicky but you mean low power (watts) which by definition means low current (amps). The voltage is fixed and needs to be the standard uk mains i.e. 230V ac.
Please do not connect anything Low Voltage into an EHU unless you want to see sparks.

Many sites won't let you use a standard extension lead. Has to have RCD circuit breaker etc. Go for a proper job from Towsure or a reputable camping supplier.

My advice is to get a proper EHU, not a made up domestic job on the cheap. Expect to pay around £55 for a 3 gang set up with RCD and circuit breaker - on about 20m of arctic grade cable. Gooutdoors have them on offer. Be safe!
