Morning Everyone,
I would like some advice on the following please.
We have been asked by a client of ours to install a number of socket outlets to power equipment imported from the USA, within a commercial office space.
I am aware that we will need to install a step down transformer and increase the frequency to 60Hz in order for the imported equipment to operate safely and correctly.
Can anyone advise how we stand from a regulatory point of view? Will the installation after the step down transformer be regulated under BS:7671? Will we need to install 30mA additional protection to to these sockets (lower voltage - 110V site supplies do not require this?) Do we need to use a specific type of outlet? - I am aware of non-shuttered and shuttered outlets available.
Any advice is appreciated thank you.
