Electrical in Toilet

toilet cannot have ANY 13amp power socket. except for those 12v types(shaver..etc)

other than toilets, power sockets must be "dunno 1m or so" away from any water tape.

The power socket in the toilet need to be of the isolation transformer kind.

If u ask me, better don't put ANY socket in the toilet. So dangerous, just a bit of water splashed accidentally when u are showering or cleaning/ washing the toilet...that's it man.....

Hotel bathroom kind are the big box kind.. inside got a transformer, that will trip the circuit there and then if got any problem, is also limited to 5A, and also act as a 230-110V step down transformer. Is not uncommon to see ppl have hairdryer right next to the basin.

Did u ask them if you have a 13A/15A socket for instant heater, and if you accidentally splash on the inter-connect then how.?

IMO, so long your wall socket is not within the shower area, it is still alright. and just make sure the wall socket is at least 1' above floor. And most importantly lightning arrester must be fuctioning and properly grounded.

he scare u run 3kw appliance in the toilet, that's why restrict u to 5A only...
