Hi,
I'm looking to install a new sauna heater that is rated at 8 kW but I'm not sure if my existing cabling is rated high enough. At the moment I've got a 6.0mm cable from my consumer unit direct to the existing sauna heater. I don't know the current kW rating of my existing sauna heater (I think it's 4.5 kW but not too sure). I'm a bit concerned that 6.0mm may not be enough for 8 kW, do you think this is ok?
