Here is an electrical power guide for our catering equipment. Please note that these are power guidelines. Please consult your electrician on use of all three phase power equipment.
Single phase (3 pin plug) V Three phase power plug:
Each phase are both power supplies, the single phase power requires less power than the three phase power. In simple terms the single phase is used in all households and has only one hard wire. However, the three phase power plug has three hard wires, it doesn’t have a normal household plug and can transmit three times more power than a single phase plug. A three phase power plug cannot be plugged into the mains in your home, they generally require hard wiring and requires an electrician.
Equipment that requires up to and including 13 amp / 3kw rating most of the time requires a single phase (3 pin plug). Anything over 13 amp / 3kw rating requires a three phase power.
We’ve separated below the single phase and three phase power requirements of our equipment.
