Some premises may have 3- phase electricity installed, this is normally for houses with larger electricity loads and most businesses. To measure three phase electricity you will need to purchase 2 extra clips @£9.95 each. buy here
Newer properties may have large plastic protection around the cables, or the cables built into the wall of the property. In these cases, please consult a qualified electrician for the installation of your wattson.
