Hi, I need your advice. I bought a brand new house 6months ago, with a detached garage at the bottom of the garden - the fuse for this says NSB06 - so I assume 6amps.
Now whenever I run my pressure washer (1500watt) or lawn mower (similar wattage) it trips the switch - which is very very annoying. I have to use a long extension from the house.
Can I change this fuse for something like 8amp? When I moved in it only had a light and a double socket in the garage.
I also re-did the whole garden, and when digging I found the cable to the garage (you can also see it inside the garage) - this cable looks like one of those 30amp armoured cables you get (approx 3/4 inch thick) (also in it's own sleeve underground).
So, can I just change the fuse?
