[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 15291, member: 250"] that is a rule of thumb for your average internal pendant batten lamp holder. BUT you also only assume max 66% simultaneously switched one I think you would have some SERIOUS light pollution issues if you are banging 100watt bulbs in all around the garden. I would think with that quantity of lights they are several low wattage bulbs.. (unless its an airfield and you are marking out the runway?) what physical fittings are you putting in the garden.. i.e. some lamp fittings cannot have a 100watt lamp put into them because they don't exist. e.g. are they deck lights.. garden border/path lights.. 230v, 12v, LED ??? There are hundreds of houses in the country with only 60amp for the whole property.. so 50amp for your garage & garden is quite large to say the least! You also would be wise to take into consideration guidance toward installing more low wattage energy saving lamps... ;) [/QUOTE]
