Interesting discussion But the power circuits have 20 amp breakers in them. That means I can have 2 appliances plugged in to 2 GPO's drawing 10 amps each Yeah it takes little to draw 20 amps, a heater 10amp, clothes dryer 10 amp, toaster 7amp and electric jug 7amp theoretically should overload a 10 amp circuit by a factor of 3, still the 20 amp breaker stays in place Not quite sure how it works Don't take life too seriously Date: AM Aug 27, Date: PM Sep 8, Date: PM Oct 2, Going to save me a lot of worry.

There is no middle ground between facts and fallacies - argumentum ad temperantiam. In a worst case the three phase cable makes a sturdy pull-through cord Hey Bedford I am not sure that I want to see a picture, it might scare the children. Anyhow the short answer is provided that the cables are large enough and they probably are , there should be no or little difference between installing a 10A and a 15A outlet. Haha, oh dear, at least it looks like my memory would stop me being a racist I found an old photo taken by a friend legally entitled to unscrew the screws hiding the wires and it appears I had the colours mixed up.
It's the blue and the white wires that are neatly terminated to the side, as per the attached photo. Though having a look in the main meter box, I suspect the lone RCD switch is for the shed circuit. Does this make it a lot less suspect? Also, the question about the three phase remains. I don't fully understand the workings of it Trying to read up on it whilst my brain is in a mild flu shutdown mode is difficult , so can single phase be run off the first three wires and then the other two lines go towards completing the three phase, or does another cable need to be run for the single phase to remain?
Anyway, thank you all greatly for the quick replies, now to think about where I'd want a 15a socket put and to chase up some quotes Oh, and for the benefit of horrifying people with my meterbox in this day and age, a photo is also attached. I really want to get it fixed up, but I'm shamefully afraid of having a sparky lay eyes on it and say "This is going to be a very big job".
Until I change work, it's a plan on the backburner. Oh, and for the benefit of horrifying people with my meterbox in this day and age, a photo is also attached. I didn't say this but you could just grind the earth pin down to fit, it may not trip the breaker if you have a 15amp circuit installed.

Electricians in Melbourne charge the lowest for installing power points, followed by electricians in Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane.

To make the most out of the per hour charge and service fee, find other electrical tasks for your electrician to do.
