Cheers Chris. Out of interest, would you say that a RCD or RCBO would be essential when installing a 20A 3-phase Socket in a small (sole-trader) commercial premises?
I thought that it was important enough to spend a few hundred pounds on one. The thing is that machine tools have a lot of exposed conductive parts.
The obvious workaround is to hard wire the equipment. Another alternative would have been to have a (much cheaper) RCD incomer, but I wanted to avoid the possibility of everything going off at the same time.
