Hello all
I am ready to have a proper electricity supply into my garage.
I would like a few plugs to run a Tig welder that currently has a 16amp socket and a grinder. I guess a light would be good as well but Im not too bothered about that as i have an old fish aquarium light that i usually just plug into a socket.
I have a redundant 40a breaker on the house consumer unit. I t was running an electric shower but I have got rid of it. The wire also goes to the back wall of the house so is in a nice easy location to drill through the wall to connect with my garage. clipped to the wall the wire would need to be about 14 metres to reach the garage. Or a little less if i hung it in the air to the garage. I figure the wire would have to be 6mm and probably armoured?
Once into my garage what do i need? another smaller garage consumer unit or not??
