    New Build - Garage Electrical Changes

    It's not on all the time, only if/when we need extra frozen storage. Like Christmas. And it's not that cold in there at the moment. Surprisingly it's quite a big garage! And yes it's a small car - a project to be turned into a track toy.

    New Build - Garage Electrical Changes

    You are misunderstanding. In a reply above I said I am going to have the hot tub separately powered and wired off the mains. Not on the garage electrics at all. This will be at a later date. So using the current set up for general work like charging batteries and a few led lights and...

    New Build - Garage Electrical Changes

    My thoughts precisely. Winston1 I don't really want to change the way it's wired up as this would mean more remedial work than I want to do and my OH would not be happy about that. Also as its a brand new property I shouldn't need to - plus it should comply with all regulations. As long as I...

Same goes for the lights. As any load over 13A would "blow...

    I think I'm going to have to call in an electrician, I can't figure out if I can add sockets or lights off the existing work as both the light and the socket are powered from the same 13A fuse box which is part of the ground floor sockets circuit (RCD protected). I'll have to speak to the Site...

    The house is new and RCD protected. Not sure on consumption of hot tub - perhaps a "wired in" one would be more suitable given the power required to hear it etc. Therefore I'd have to get someone in. I'll investigate the costs to get the relevant power into the garage for a more powerful hot...

    Thanks for the quick reply The hot tub will be plug and play ie. 13A so will run off a normal plug socket. Running a battery charger, power polisher - that kind of thing. Nothing really heavy duty like the things you mentioned. Plus a radio and phone charger and kettle. Also a karcher...

    New Build - Garage Electrical Changes

    Hi there Recently moved into a new property and I am looking to turn the garage into a "proper" garage - with a car and everything! At the moment there is a light and a double socket. Run off the "ground floor sockets" circuit and isolated by a 13A fuse which is in a blanking plate in the...
