Electrical thermostat wiring question.... Plinth heater...
So but Radom I know but I know scene will know.
I saw a guy put a plinth heater in his campervan and wire up a thermostat like a house of to control it.
So ...
The plinth heater has just a standard 13 amp plug
Can I wire a digital heating thermostat to this????
Thanks in advance....
Thanks

You'd have to check the current capability of the timer. I've got one running a 150w heater in a towel rail, and I had to run it through a
relay. With a 1kw+ plinth heater, I'd say you definitelynred one.

A plinth heater is normaly around 2kw = 10amps, if yours is a 10amp room stat from TLC would do
