Apologies - very ignorant with electrics.
I have bought (but not yet received) a used hot tub. It will no doubt be 16-30amps. I am aware that this means an electrician will need to be called.
The garden has one of the below from a previous owner. It says on the front that it should have a 30mA RCD if it is outside (which it is).
So, from looking at the chunky cable I was wondering if this can be utilised for the hot tub?
Can anybody please advise if this will be possible, and if so, what would need to happen. (Believe me, I will not be attempting this myself as I cannot even wire a plug).
Could the hot tub be wired and used directly into that box? Would that box have to be removed and then the cable used for the hot tub? How can I tell if the RCA is on that circuit? If the plug can be used, how could I extend this (i.e. if I wanted the hot tub to be 10m away).
Apologies for all the questions - best to ask most in post #1
Thanks
