Another question about my garage and basement. (the load is getting bigger) I have been reading up about diversity in the brown on site guide and am getting confused and the subject is getting more interesting.
Basicaly to recap, I am having a new garage with basement built and i am trying to work out how to supply it.
The load for my two lighting circuits is 8.8A (66% of total)
I have two rings so i have taken one at 32A and 40% of other at 12.8A
Am i right so far???
Now i am going to throw in TWO 12Kw water heaters (no diversity)
giving me a total of 153.6A
If this is right will i need a new supply? as the house supply would not be able to cope and if consumer units are rated at 100A would i need two?
(Note to lectrician i do have a 100mA RCD. thanks for previous info.)
Thanks MrF
