Hi all,
Hopefully this has posted in the right section.
Basically we have bought one of those inflatable spa’s. I also bought a BnQ pre wired outdoor socket.
The spa pump has a pre-wired plug with built in RCD.
I plugged this in too an outdoor socket which is pre-wired and has its own RCD plug which is plugged into the house.
It works for about 30 mins then trips. However if I plug the spa straight into a plug socket through the window the spa rcd is fine and doesn’t trip.
So what’s the problem outdoor socket rcd not working correctly? It does seem to get excessively hot.
I don’t mind paying for some one to wire a outdoor socket straight into the main electrics.....but will this fix the problem!
Hope that makes sense.
