    Hi, im pricing a customer to build a cold room but abit unsure how to calculate the exact size cable required for the mains so it is safe. I know the unit requires a 20A circuit breaker which will have to be motor rated for the compressor but not sure what cable will be best for the job....also is the amp of the rotary isolator based on the cable ampage or the circuit breaker ampage?

    thanks

    Why don't you build the cold room and then get a sparks to do the electrics? Not meaning to be unhelpful but if you need to ask those questions it sounds like electrics are not "your thing".
