Nice work on the conversion it will be a joy to work in there. Don't forget lots of shelves :clap:. I should look at insulating mine (1/3rd of 3 car garage) as it gets a bit warm in summer (45c+) and cold in winter (average 18c days) though I have a wood stove going most days a lot of heat is lost through the corrugated iron walls. Oh well another job on the list.

If sharing an RCD with the main house, you won't be popular if any of your toys are prone to causing trips.
I have a separate Board/RCD for the garage (fitted before house was upgraded to RCD) - I find that the VFD for my Mill/Drill, and sometimes even my workshop PC will trip the garage RCD at switch on. My garage RCD is just a standard domestic variety, I believe there are alternative ones which are designed to tolerate the likes of VFDs.
I'm sure your Electrican son will be able to advise if this is anything needing attention.

This is looking great. I am looking forward to seeing the machines go in!

Well, have progressed nicely with my conversion; new toys arrived..finally :ddb: , had some bother over the lathe but that's another story (a long one!) a few tel.calls to Warco along with a very strongly worded e-mail :wack: , resolved the issue (Warco's don't seem to like answering e-mails?) anyhow to cut a long story short all has been resolved with a very apologetic Warco finally getting things sorted.
WM16 Mill & WMV-F 250 lathe, both variable speed:
