AND the nearest neighbour is half a mile away. Certainly not a business - I'm retired and don't want that sort of pressure any more- just having fun in my dotage :beer: --- End quote --- Yes, but does the electricity meter take shillings (aka 5p coins) or is there a slot in the controller where you just plug your debit card?!?! :doh: :doh: |

Well I got them to install three phase in exchange for access for re-cabling their poles & transformer so that was f.o.c. and I got them to put in a heavier supply so when eventually I re-commission my 100kva induction furnace I can run off the grid rather than run my 100kva generator as I did at the last place we moved from. Obviously the running costs are significant :bugeye: if used often but in reality it's fairly infrequent. :beer: |

I have this vision of you sat with an enormous pile of 5p pieces trying to put them in the meter fast enough. Russell |

Have you tried Steve Cox on 07836 736496, he runs landylift in West Yorks, but his other job is repairing CNC machinery. Phil |
