Hi
I'm having my hot water system changed and the heated towel rail will now only operate when the CH is on, so I need to add an electric element to dry the towels when only the hot water system is on.
Can you let me know whether this work is notifiable?
The towel rail is in zone 2. The wall it's mounted on backs on to an airing cupboard where there is now a spare socket due to a no longer required shower pump. The socket is on a properly protected circuit (rewire in 2019). The immersion heater is also being removed from that circuit, so there's definitely capacity on it. If I add a fused spur in the airing cupboard on the wall behind the towel rail and drill a hole through, is it notifiable? My understanding is that adding the fused spur is not, but I'm not sure if it becomes notifiable because it connects to an appliance in zone 2 and/or it's notifiable because of the new installation of a heating element in zone 2, despite the connection not being made in the bathroom.
Thanks in advance.
