Hi guys,
In the course of my work as an electrician I came across a portable pool heater rated at 4.8kW. it was designed and built in the UK, but the power was supplied by two 13A plugs. I was asked about PAT Testing it, but I can see all sorts of potential issues with such a device. Both plug leads feed into the control box PCB - two other leads then go to the pool heater. What would happen if the plugs were fed from a different phase? etc etc. Any Thoughts? Thanks in advance. SS
