Plan is to let it all die when they turn the grid off, drop the incoming breaker, start the genny and plug the sewer-side cable (2.5mm mains cable with plugs either end) into the Genny and the closest mains socket and let it "back-feed" to the main bars in the distribution board and then on to the lighting rings etc.
A bit like "wives & mistresses", as long as the grid and the genny don't ever meet up then the 3.5kW of the genny should run the essentials. :D
Sounds dangerous. Bear in mind a standard 13A uk socket aint rated high enuff to take 3.5kw of lectric. If it goes above its rating it will over heat. Thats assuming its in good service and there's no wear on the pins.

Yes, just because the genny can supply 3200 watts doesn't mean you would always pull 3200 watts continually. But 3200w / 240v is only around 13A So the fuse will blow and protect everything. :)
 
is it @ll polished n smelling nice then. :D:D hope it does you well njoy it m@tey.:):)
Tons of that silicone shine stuff that comes off on your fingers.. and a smelly air fresh that was anything but!! That was the first thing to go!!
Needs a clean to get all the cr@p off and then a load of leather conditioner. The worst bit is the screen where someone has knackered wipers scratch it

Trouble is, once put together they go for shedloads more. Have to ask why he isn't finishing it. Mebbe he is in a hole and desperate for the dosh.
Be interesting to see what he accepts, or if he will withdraw. He may have spent that money but it is all secondhand now and he didn't mention the Gbox.
 
Had my second visit to the lug klinik today, but they failed to decoke them again. Referring to the lump of wax, she (young lady) said it was big and hard and she couldn't do anything with it. I said nothing as she had a skewer in my lug at the time :D. So another week of squirting Castrol R in and another visit next week.
