If your caravan, motorhome, or campervan has a 230V electrical installation, it's a legal requirement in New Zealand to hold a current Electrical Warrant of Fitness (EWOF). Without one, you could be breaking the rules — and putting lives at risk.

At Sparky G Limited, we make the process straightforward. As a Registered Electrical Inspector (REI) carries out EWOF inspections and any required remedial work — so you deal with one qualified expert from start to finish.

We service caravans, motorhomes, campervans, fifth-wheelers, food trailers, and imported vehicles right across Auckland.

What Is an EWOF?

An Electrical Warrant of Fitness is a mandatory compliance certificate for any caravan, motorhome, or transportable structure that has a 230V (mains voltage) electrical installation. It confirms that the electrical system has been inspected by a Registered Electrical Inspector and meets the requirements of the Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010,AS/NZS 3001.2 and AS/NZS 3000

Think of it like a WOF for your vehicle — but for the electrical system inside it.

EWOF certificates are valid for:

• 4 years for a new installation and renewal every 4 years

Who Needs an EWOF?

• You need a current EWOF if you own or operate any of the following with a 230V electrical system:

  • Caravans

  • Motorhomes

  • Campervans

  • Fifth-wheelers

  • Converted vans (sleeper/camper conversions)

  • Food trailers and mobile catering units

  • Imported vehicles with onboard 230V electrics

  If you're unsure whether your vehicle requires an EWOF, give us a call — we're happy to advise at no obligation.

What Does Our EWOF Inspection Cover?

Our thorough inspection checks the full 230V electrical installation, including:

• Switchboard and circuit protection — RCDs, MCBs

• Wiring condition — insulation integrity, routing, and fixing

• Earthing and bonding — continuity and compliance

• Socket outlets and connections — testing for safe operation

• Appliance and fixed equipment connections

• Mains inlet and external connection points

• 240V/12V system interaction — chargers, inverters, and isolators

• Solar and battery system integration (where applicable)

• General safety and compliance with AS/NZS 3001.2

At the end of the inspection, we issue the EWOF certificate if compliant, or provide a clear written report of what needs to be rectified — and we can carry out those repairs too.

Imported Caravans & Vehicles

Bought a caravan, motorhome, or campervan from overseas — particularly from the UK, Europe, or Australia? Imported vehicles with 230V electrical systems must be inspected and certified before use in New Zealand. Wiring standards differ between countries, and many imported units require modifications to meet NZ requirements.
