Title: mower ? no safety switch
Post by: tomatoada on July 10, 2009, 08:15:57

I have offered to mow the lawn of a pensioner taking my own mower. Its an electric one. A friend wondered if there was a safety trip out, as it is an old neglected property. Is there any device which I could attach to the plug of my mower before plugging into his electric supply? Advice/ info please.

Yes, you just need a plug-in RCD adapter but they're about £20.

One like this would do it:
