Hi.
I've a need to run a 3KW boiler in my shed (possibly with a light as well). I think 3kW is cutting it a bit close for a standard extension lead. I'm also unable (rented house) to install a proper electical connection to the shed.
I'll only need it for a few hours a month. I was wondering if I could convert a 2 gang house socket to supply the ~14/15A needed and run this to the shed (albeit temporarily) with IEC308 connectors - via an RCD of course? I'm also not happy about taking it off a spur. I do have an upstairs ring which is hardly used.
I'm also not going to take any suggestions of using two mains plugs to a junction box.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
