Wiring question

Recommended Posts

I'd like to fit a 150W 24V booster for my shower. 

Is it possible I can tap into my shower for the electric I need?

(can I chop the plug off and wire directly to my shower) 

Instead of running the cable to my nearest plug socket.

it is possible to connect boost pump 220v to 24v adapter to shower supply

not good idea to cut off 220v plug from adapter and wire into shower box direct

best have new socket connection made in safe dry area for power adapter

 

examples 24v pump

24V?

 

IMHO nobody who asks such a question should work on electrical installations - especially not in a shower.

Let someone do it who knows what he is doing! 

Hence the question.

The question, on your question, is if this is a 24v pump is it attached to a 220v conversion source?  You can not expect to attach a 24v product of any kind directly to 220v AC line.  That you mention a plug seems to indicate it is powered by 220v but we can not be sure without additional information, such as name/model of pump unit.

That's fine pal, I have been given the information I needed. SomchaiDIY gave me what I needed.

But one thing not mentioned is RCBO - make very sure any electric run into shower/bath is on an external RCBO for your protection.  Electric and dirty water/bare body is not a good combination.

I like the idea of using 24 Volt....24 are easily survive able. I always think the Thai water heaters are scary
