[QUOTE="binky, post: 507899, member: 490"] there is another option if taking a cct back to the Consumer Unit is not possible. Spur off socket in 4mm, and take it to a mini board (IP rated) with isolator switch and 20A MCB, then run sockets in 4mm SWA. You coukd use 2.5mm SWA, but it's along run for that and based on a guesstimated total run if 50m the Doncaster cables calculator suggests 4mm, XLPE cable for 4 kW at that length. [/QUOTE]
