Ah yep, rating plate indicates 1.9 - 2.3 Kw :oops:

Just checked and the specs of the dishwasher, shows energy consumption is 0.97KWH , 970 Watts which would be around 4A, so a 5A fuse would have been sufficient here This switch/fuse has been there for a long time when we had our old dishwasher (15 year old Miele job) which was replaced...

Really have no idea, all I know is that it's one of the live cables - not sure how to identify supply or load cable so probably better to get a sparks in!

Got a replacement for the bathroom unit sorted out quicky, arrived on Friday which was sooner than expected! Bought a new switch for the dishwasher unit, but unfortunately the cable behind is burnt so won't be able to use that. Would it be safe just to cut the cable a bit and join up some...

Lets see what the retailer says ... the manufacturer is in Italy so I don't think I'll have much luck contacting them for a replacement.

Thanks - I thought the switch was on the 12V side as the wires come out of the transformer into the switch - although I don't know much about these things :lol: I'll get in touch with the manufacturer/seller , see if they can give me a free replacement for this part, it is less than a year...

The first one was wired like that internally - only opened as it was faulty , would the switch rating not have something to do with it? The dishwasher connection has been there for years and not a problem before (since 1992!)

Hi All, First post on this forum :D hope I can find some good advice. First of all the bathroom mirror unit we had with fitted halogens stopped working - took the thing apart and the switch has completely burnt out inside The rating on the switch says 2A 125V AC There's 2 12v...
