    OK.... Thanks Neil.

    Do you run your whole system from one physical plug socket or 2 - E.g. One for VFD and one for CNC ?

    Why can i not use a 10Amp mains emergency stop button which cuts power in the AC mains line, thus doing away with the relay, transformer and all associated wiring....
    e.g. Like this...

    I want to keep things simple.
    I really like the idea of having one physical kettle lead plug into my box, but I need to understand how many amps a VFD on full chat + 600Watt PSU driving stepper motor drivers will pull.
    I have done some more research and a standard household plug socket is 13A max.

    One things for sure is I need to check my consumer unit and understand my ring main better. I don't know what ring it's on or what else it's driving. Will do tomorrow.
