## Questions & Answers

**Q: can it use washing machine**
A: I'm not sure what you're asking.  You can plug a washing machine into the socket and the washing machine will work ok if the socket is connected to a 240vac supply.  The socket is for out door use and must be used in conjunction with a 30mA RCD for safety.  You would not use a washing machine out doors in the open.   Do not put the socket in a washing machine.  Hope this helps.

**Q: Will the unit take large transformer plugs and still close?**
A: Good evening to you Miss Challen. In answer to your question about fitting transformers into this electrical unit, unfortunately not the lid will not close. SORRY.What I have done is to purchase a large waterproof blank junction box and fitted it to a wooden post, fit an electrical extension lead depending on length and then you can plug in your transformer inside the junction box. Just remember to drill a couple of drain holes on the underside to let air in and condensation out, then just run your extension lead through to your 2 gang box. Hope I have not confused you to much. Cheers Keith.

**Q: unit is indicating fused? is this repairable?**
A: The socket is not fused. You will have a fuse in the device plugged in to the socket. For protection it is recommended you connect this back to your consumer unit with MCB and RCD protection.You can also get a BG WP22RCD this is a double socket with built-in RCD protection in the same size unit as a BG WP22.

**Q: Hi what sort of 3 core cable would i need to run outside As im going throw a conservrity under decking back up throw the decking and fixed to a wall?**
A: Should be 4mm SWA cable. Rats take a liking to electrical cable under decking.
