Is it a legal requirment to have a blue or orange cable for camping hookups??

Have just aquuiered a nice trailer tent for free and am gonna wire it up for mains.

Been looking at a hook up cable and they are a rip off. if it is a legal requirment and ideas where to buy just the cable and make my own lead.

Thanks

Use 15 amp rated cable m8 white would be ok afaik and it would be visible less chance of tripping over it lol.
Personaly i would buy a proper tent hook up as it will have RCD protection which could save your life if things get a bit soggy or damp.
Also some camp sites wont let you hook up with home made hook ups.

Check out the bay m8 nice and cheap.

Not gonna buy one of those dodgy homebrew jobbies from ebay. Got a hookup already for my tent but got a new trailer tent and gonna put electrics in it.

Got a mini consumer unit an rcd and two mcb's so will all be done properly. was just wondering about the cable from the tent to the hook up point.
