Does anyone know if any manufacturers still sell class 2 projectors (2 pin power, no earth)? We have a few rooms with interesting electrical installations where putting in a new class 1 projector would involve a fair amount of extra work. The ones we had previously were Epson X3 projectors.
to be honest in the long run its going to be cheaper to just get a decent sparky to do the work!
Yes the only issue with electrical work it that goes outside my remit so suddenly makes a simple job take a lot longer.Originally Posted by glennda
Yup - but you are going to struggle to find a class 2 projector and even then its likely to cost a bit more. Therefore getting the sparky in to replace the wiring is easier.
I know how you feel I would love to be able to change that kind of stuff (plug sockets etc are not hard to change!!) but instead you have to pay a spark!
no need for sparky just get one of these fig 8 to IEC
Unfortunatly not legal in the UK as the do not provide an earth.
That adaptor is the wrong way round, and is made for pat testing cables. You can't goe from two wire supply to a three wire bit of kit safely.
You can if its double insulated as most projectors are.
