Can anybody now explain with aid of the picture ?

its the heating we have in the house, just wasnt sure exactly which is cheap rate electricity

Yea we have two consumer units one for storage/convectors and one for domestic power. So what exactly is giving cheaper electricity 24 hours a day just the 24 hour side of the Heating board yea? or how does it work?

Hello, Is the 24 hour side of the Storage heating board on a cheaper tariff than the domestic Consumer unit?

13 amp switch fused ?

I understand all that, but what i was asking was, why does some folk put 13amp switches up above the worktop rather than 20amp switches?

Aye thats what i thought to be honest, but other than the obvious reasons there is no real reason as to why you would have 20amp switches rather than 13amp switches then yea?

Why can you supply only one item from a 20amp DP switch, and more with a 13 amp FCU?

i dont suppose it matters does it ?

Hello, I'm just having a debate with one o my fellow work colleagues, when you go to fit out a kitchen do you use 13amp or 20 amp switches for your fixed appliances e.g fridges, freezers, washin machines etc ? Thanks[/b]
