Only found this site recently - excellent forum!
Anyway. I require 3 sockets to be installed on the outside of a house. The 3 sockets will be feeding a hot tub (about 1200 watts), a lawn mower and a pond pump.
Will the following solution be viable?:
A 20amp MCB in the consumer unit.
From the MCB a 12 metre run of 2.5mm cable - the cable would be routed through a wall then down to the outdoor sockets.
The 2.5mm cable would feed the 3 sockets, installed as a radial circuit (each socket would have its own RCD).
Many thanks in advance.
