Good Evening,
This is my first post to the group so please be gental :-) sorry for any spelling mistakes/bad grammer in advance.
I live in a basement flat and above me there is a vacant shop premises (two rooms) and above that another flat that is rented out.
Anyway the power is not connected at the moment in the shop (I think the company fuse??) is missing. There is a meter and two cu's (one for the central heating I guess).
One of the builders tendered want's mains, so this is where my question begins.
I have mains in my flat (obviousley :-) )
It has been suggested that an extension leed can be used, one end plugged into a 13a socket in my flat and at the other end a leed made (with two 13a plugs) one plugged into the extension drum, the other into one ring main in the shop premises.
Would this work?
What if the are on another phase upstairs?
Any pitfalls I shold look out for? (the builder has promised a tidy sum for power :) )
Is it legal?
Is it safe?
Any help appciaed before I agree.
Cheers!
