Paul,
how would you run a farm without 3-ph ? Perhaps not all homes in the countryside are farms in Britain?

One drawback of 3-ph is that you need a big panel, with all those 3-pole MCBs. One 3 pole MCB for the cooker, one for the heat pump, one for the pool pump, one for the ventilation system, one for the general purpose socket. Not forgetting the 4 pole RCD. It fills the panel in no time.


Cooker, panel, MCB... My English is somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic.
