I cannot read Pedro's post, looking straight on, 45* almost.

Just click then drag, just like your highlighting a section of text and voila

According to my old copy of AS 3000 1986 you are allowed to have 2 x 15amp outlets on one circuit on 2.5mm cable protected by a 20amp circuit breaker. The same size cable and breaker is used for power circuits in homes with between 7 and 15 x 10 amp outlets (normal powerpoint). The cable and circuit breaker are the same size its just the number of outlets is reduced. So long as you don't have a heater going at the same time you should be fine, worst case the breaker or fuse will trip or blow.
You can also buy a commercial lead that enables 15 amp leads to be plugged into normal 10amp outlets legally. It has a 10 amp circuit breaker built in to limit current to 10 amps, saying this the compressor could draw over 10amps on start up but only for a short time and may or may not trip this device. I am a Licenced electrician but am not working in that field at the moment.

You really need to update your AS3000

Alot less stipulation, you can have as many outlets as you wish on a 10A cct, solong as the cable is appropriately protected according to size and CB rating
