Hi, I currently have a double switched socket (radial) serving a dishwasher and washing machine. We're getting a new kitchen fitted with a washer/dryer and dishwasher. Looking for any thoughts on what my options are for the new set-up?
Current train of thought is that i'll need two FCUs above the worktop with outlets below (location TBC) but having never had a dryer before im expecting the draw of both dishwasher and dryer on at the same time to be too much for single line. Two FCUs on the one radial leaves me with the same issue above (?).
Is my only option to use existing supply for one and then 'find' another line (of the ring) to supply the other FCU?
Should add, I have a circa '70s consumer unit....waiting on power company fitting isolator to get CU changed.
Thanks.
