pin Electrics are standard in most other European countries.
They will slowly replace the 2 separate socket currently used
in this country. The 13 pin socket is essentially the two
7 pin sockets merged in to one.
All caravans manufactured in the UK from 2008 will be fitted
with an ISO 13 pin connector as standard. This system uses
one socket with 13 pins inside, instead of the traditional
two separate 7 pin sockets.
13 pin sockets
are also used on some vehicles especially with detachable
towbars when there isn't enough room to mount two separate
sockets.
