Here's some things I know about electrics;
Amps need volts to move
Don't hold bare wires at 230v
The neutral is sort of earth plus
Fuses don't always blow at their stated value.
Any help? Lots more useless electrics info available if needed.

Re: Electric.
Technically you don't always need a voltage for current, with a superconductor anyhow, since there's no resistance

Re: Electric.
Excellent point. I'll dig out my superconductor HLT element which I'd completely forgotten about. Should allow me to heat the liquor up very cheaply-apart from the cost of running the superconductor, obviously!chris2012 wrote:Technically you don't always need a voltage for current, with a superconductor anyhow, since there's no resistance

Re: Electric.
You guys are a hoot!!
Anyway..... I'm looking at getting a all singing dancing electric control panel thing. Apparently it will require its own 32a socket/circuit.
I'm going to be putting this into a new brewshed I'm getting. I will also require circuit for say a light and maybe couple of other plugs.
Could I hook this up in my shed off my main electric box thing I have in my house ?

Re: Electric.
don't lick the shiny bitsAnyone know much about electrics?
you could but if you have a residual current device on your main electric box thing you might get nuisance tripping and very little fault segregation.theres also the question of earthing arrangements if your brew shed is outside the equipotential zone of the incoming supply.Could I hook this up in my shed off my main electric box thing I have in my house

Re: Electric.
I'm clueless with electrics. I'm just told I'd need a dedicated 32a circuit for the set up. No idea what that entails.

Re: Electric.
Run an armoured wire from your supply box to the new shed. Fit a new consumer unit with RCBOs in the shed and run everything you need from that.

Re: Electric.
No idea. Just know he builds swanky beach huts and he's offered to do me a brew shed. But basically that's pretty much the workings of what I'd require then.
