On our first trip to France I had heard about reverse polarity on electric hook up, this made me look in to this as I didn't want to fry my electrics!
as far as I'm aware reverse polarity won't damage your van but could leave Some electrical items live even when they are switched off.
This video shows how I check for reverse polarity and how you can use a second reverse plug to change the polarity.
