    You need to find out for sure because VFD's and high powered PSU's come in with a kick.!

    If it is a just a spur then wouldn't recommend you pull everything off it and chances are it's rated 13A.? Most VFD/spindles can potentially pull between 7-8A and 3 axis machine/PSU could pull 8-10 under full load and 10-12 if twin screw setup or 4th axis.?
    Then you have secondery stuff like PSU for BoB's, coolant pump etc and then there's the PC.! Heater in winter, alarm clock so you don't miss ya dinner or Coronation street etc etc Ye get the picture.!! . . So all in all you could potentially be pulling over 13A under full load.?

    I certainly wouldn't be happy running all this off a 13A spur.! . . . I think you'll certainly be needing your shield and sword for the dragons and trolls every now & again.??

    Yeah I won't be mentioning that last line to the wife

    This might take a bit more planning and balancing then. Steppers and Drivers were going to be 3 x Nema 23 3Nm and PM752s, spindle to be chosen based on price and availability at the time!

    I could always run an extension lead up the stairs to run the fan during the summer!

    Won't matter if they are all pulling off the same ring.? If this is the case now you have to total everything using power and pulling off this ring in the house and be sure it's not going to exceed the fuse rating.? . . . . Don't let the wife put kettle on or hair dryer or take a shower while using machine thats for sure.!!

    Ok so an extension lead from the kitchen - it can't be more than 10m if I run it outside through the windows, maybe 30m if I run it up the stairs

    (Just for clarity, I don't actually intend to do this!)
