bpsmith Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Just looking around for what is also required to run the Porter Cable and found a site offering tidy prices. Is this all I need: Extn Cable with Plug/Socket 3.3kVA 110V Site Transformer I will be going for the 2.5mm thick cable in the first link and realise that the transformer is probably more powerful than I need but is the same price as other less powerful options elsewhere. Do I need a plug adapter of any kind, with the above kit, as advised in other posts. They also offer free postage too. All help appreciated once more!

johnlondonw3 Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 good time to get a PC as the $ exchange rate is at its best for 14 yrs,making them 50% cheaper............. Im thinking of getting the Rapid Trans.cable and plug,looks like the best value by far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpsmith Posted January 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Most definitely the best time! Do you need to buy a plug aswell as the extn cable with plug? If that makes sense!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimtim Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Yes, you need a 110v plug, to replace the 2 pin one thats on the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsmith Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 I also put in for the PC SFX kit with the 3.5" backing plate and 2 sets of the 4" and 6" pads along with a few other things. Going to order my transformer, etc, today. The 2.5mm cable is only £3 more, would this be worth the extra spend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpsmith Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 I believe this is the type of plug we need: 110V 2 Pole (+Earth) Plug Could someone please clairfy that this is the correct one to go for and that the 2 Pole + Earth is correct. Therefore a 3 pin plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
