Hi any electricians on today? I am considering buying a 3000w gutter vac can I plug that into the customer socket in home. The reason I ask is that according to my calculations it will draw 13amps which is right on the limit. I won't use all three motors all the time I guess.

What do you think?

If in doubt buy the 2400w numatic twin.. These 3000w vac's look way to big for normal housing jobs IMO.

oh yes you will! - 3 motors means quicker and better clearing

if worried get a genny


i'd personally never use/rely on using customers electric

I use a 3000watt ets never had a problem with custys electric and you will use all 3 vacs everytime because of the size 2 vacs feels crap.

I have a 4200 watt vac and it works fine in a standard outlet. A genny for that size will be expensive, I've never had a customer refuse me use of electric.
