Hello all.
I have a fused connection unit, which I presume spurs from the ring main, because it is connected to a single T&E cable and when I remove the 30amp fuse which I know protects the ring, the supply stops.
Before plastering, I ran a 2.5mm T&E from this FCU (vertically, then horizontally) so I could then connect a flex outlet and then a cooker hood. I now know I should have used 1.0mm T&E, but have heard that using larger cable is safer than using too small a cable.
Does anybody forsee problems using 2.5mm between the FCU and the flex outlet, and a 3A fuse in the FCU?
Cheers
