Thanks, WotEver.
I will get in touch with them.

My plug tester shows all correct when on shore line, but when running on inverter, it shows earth fault.
I have a RICH ELECTRIC INVERTEK 1500w inverter. There is an external earth connection from the casing to the boat circuitry.
I have been told to connect earth and neutral inside the inverters output.
Will this work, or will it damage the inverter or the boat's breakers? -
Thanks for all the useful comments. In answer to "Which do I want", it is most certainly on old thumper. I love working on engines, and they were so beautifully engineered. I'm glad that fuel costs is no longer a deciding factor.
All I have to do now is find the right boat. The searching will be as pleasant as the buying.
Thanks again for all your replies.
Barry.

If I had 2 narrowboats which in all other respects were the same, but one had an old low revving thumper, and the other had a modern high revving growler, which would have the better fuel economy?

And you are still here to tell the tale. So it works.
I wouldn't trust those distributors. 240AC will kill, wherever it comes from.
Did your rcd still work ok?
