Discuss Oh Dear ! - Hot Tub With 13a Plug?! in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

i have a similar situation. hot tub supplied by a BS1363 and flex. weatherproof socket 3m from tub, tub is all plastic and mounted on wood decking. Zs at socket is 0.5 ( pme earthing in house. ) just unsure if a rod added would be advisable. hot tubs are not something i've come across before.
Most over here are via Rcd and exporting the PME to the isolator at tub, I took advice on that and as it was sometime ago but my first one installed, took earth from in cu to RCD enclosure at tub end & commando socket interlocked type then kept the Cpc there from PME seperate to cover the Swa to it & added a rod in garden from tub to TT it and all has been great since.
