Then you should be quite capable of performing the calculations and referring to the regs for yourself.

NO NEED TO GET ARSEY MATE ONLY ASKING FOR OTHER SPARKIES IDEAS,GAVE UP SEVEN YEARS AGO,NO DOUBT REGS HAVE NOW CHANGED
 
Do you remember your power triangle and your diversity factor?
 
I should have thought as an ex-electrician you would have told us power ratings in kW. And also I would have expected you to have considered running three separate cables, one to each appliance - though this may not necessarily be cost effective.
 
Asking a simple questions getting stupid answers ,can people not read nowdays
 
In my days pal you could run a 6mm cable up to 15kw regs have no doubt changed
