External Power Sockets
1 Answers
I have recently had an external power socket fitted, but the vast majority of external appliances seem to have large 'transformer' style plugs which don't fit. Can you get an external plug which does fit these?

If the �transformer style plugs� are round yellow plugs � the equipment will be rated at 110V which is normally used with an isolation transformer, and is not suitable for connection to the 230V UK mains. If you want to use 110V equipment, you need something like this:-

You will need to ensure that the transformer power rating is equal to or greater than that of the appliance.
Otherwise purchase the equipment required, fitted with a standard UK plug, and ensure that it can be used outdoors (specified by the manufacturer).
