I installed my own and it was back to back - cost was NZ20.00 for the Socket - 1/2 M 2.5 t&e tps and an hour of my time - yes I am a regsitered electrician - if I were charging it would have been under $100 dollars of 50 uk pounds - our dist boards are full RCBO protected

Having an hot tub doesnt mean you need a earth rod, It is permissable under certain conditions to use the main source earthing arrangements, TN-S you can , TN-C-S you can also subject to conditions

On the basis of your first scenario of hole through wall, outside socket, how much does the socket cost? How long would the job take? How much do you charge per hour? Look forward to receiving, thanks..

I am thinking of getting an mma/tig welder and maybe a plasma cutter, but they both pull some thing like 6 - 7 Kva @ 25 amp's "each!", I was told both of them should work on a normal 3 pin plug?,, yer right!,, 7Kva @ 25 amp's off a 13 amp three pin,, I think not!,, I have my power meter just inside my back gate, and on this meter there is a RCD that could/should feed an electric cooker, I cook on gas!,, so it is not used for this,, so,, and I am guessing here but,, would that not have at least 35 amp's or more feed on it?,, that maybe I could use to power my welder?,, wired up to an outside 32 amp waterproof socket?,, as I have seen my pal's 240 volt 13 amp extension lead ""smoking"",, and looking ""very limp!"" when he was using his old buzz box welder,, I dont wont to try mine out a 13 amp plug!,, any advice would be helpful,, thanks,, PS,, no pun intended but,, some people's wiring is "shocking!"
