Double Commando Sockets

Post by schlafsack » Sun Jan 11, 2015 2:36 am

My electrician put a 40A feed into my outhouse about a year ago, with the intention of me fitting it out as my brewery. He said that I should be able to run a pair of 3kw elements from it with capacity for lighting etc, or maybe even three elements with the lights off. By the looks of it I've got a 40A RCD in the main board leading to a second board in the outhouse.

I've only just got round to planning the brewery and am thinking about sockets. Screwfix have this for sale at the moment with a good discount:

Does anybody know if this would be suitable, assuming I get the electrician back to run a pair of cables from the outhouse board? Is it worth upgrading the sockets to 32A ones to give a little headroom? I've checked the MK site and there is precious little information about these units.
