    Lol, it's only 30A draw on a 220v supply, should be ok.
    Its no more than an electric shower unit draws, the old unit was rated 15A but worked fine on a 13A socket.

    He he, that's the way to do it ;)

    nah, worst it can do is pop the breaker to the shop, if it does and likely will, I'll have to rewire and uprate the breaker, I'm pushing my luck well into the realms of stupidity as I have the shop running on a 32A breaker and intending to use a 2hp compressor, 6 fluorescent lights and a 32A plasma cutter :)

    luckily the the cutter can be run at lower power on thinner stuff, but I am expecting to rewire soon.

    New torch and psu arrived today, this thing is a beast!

    not had a chance to power it up yet as I need to make a torch holder to fit the massive machine torch it has.

    The tip is totally different to my smaller unit, must be half a pound of copper in the tip :o

    Hopefully get the table cutting this week.
