    16 amp mcb load

    DON'T REPLACE IT WITH A 32A MCB. YOU COULD OVERLOAD THE CABLE. ONLY 32A ON A 6MM CABLE OR A RING MAIN. NOT A RADIAL CIRCUIT.

    Zone 1 of bathroom RCD???

    Hi all, Just a quick question as i don't have any regs to hand. I have a mains voltage fan in Zone 1 of the bathroom which is obviously a no no. If you were to install the circuit on an RCD is this acceptable.?? Thanks

    Adding an Additional Circuit

    Wire it on its own ring main in 2.5 T&E on a 32a mcb. This is the best way. Don't wire it on a radial if you have that many sockets as you could over load it.
