Mains outside - safety
HI Folks
As part of a week-long Food Festival out here in South-west Ireland, we're holding a family-fund-day-cum-open-air-market event. As part of the 'craft' attractions, I'm hoping to be able to demonstrate my stained-glass work. If all goes to plan, my stall will be backed up against the wall of a building with mains power, so I was hoping to sneak an extension lead in through a window and get my mains that way. As the building in question is Council-owned, there's a good chance that there may be 'elfin-safety' discussions - so - to avoid being scuppered by these - what's the consensus on how best to show that the temporaty installation is safe ? Something simple like a plug-in RCD at the 'inside' end of the cable ?? Power requirements are tiny - 80W for a soldering iron and maybe 100W for a small grinder.. Providing an earth at the outside end of the cable might be a challenge as it's a tarmaced car park! Thanks Adrian |
