Usually the trip switch is inside where the plug connects to your mh,

Is the lead live?

Follow the cable inside the mh from the inside of the inlet and that should go straight to the trip switch

Check the connections at each end of the ehu lead, it's not unknown for one of them to come loose and a wire to disconnect (fall out)

Or if you are on a site, just borry a lead from someone for a couple minutes, check the socket or is it called a plug on the exterior of motorhome too and work your way from there.

Our main trip is under the oven Therese also a fuse box near the leisure batts under the front habitation seats check where your leisure batts are if you have a manual it should show you where everything is or you can download the pdf file

Beans, there surely has to be a distribution board somewhere for the electric. Keep rooting and you should find it.
By the way I once worked with a Beano 20 yrs ago so I ask did you spend a period in Australia in your youth. Just been nosey!

My previous van had the mains breakers down low in the wardrobe, my present one has them behind the drivers seat.

Did you check the lead and make sure it is getting power?

You really should give the lead a proper check with a multi meter. If your Circuit breaker is ok then chances are it has to be power not getting to van.

check the lead for breaks. simple test start at one end, put your foot on the plug grab the cable just above your knee, give a sharp tug , continue all along the lead, putting your foot each time where your hands were, any sudden give will indicate an internal wire break. most leads break where the cable clamp is, in the plug or socket
Or go to your local hire shop and have the lead PAT tested.
