I have no idea and my electricity supplier is closed until monday. Is there anyway i can find out this infor mation myself?

I'd like to first state that i don't intend to carry out the works myself, i just want to understand what would be required so i can make sure i wont be getting ripped off again. I have a building at the end of my garden that i use as my home office. At the moment the only heat source is a...

For the last time: 1 (ONE, I) meter. 2 (TWO, II) consumer boards. One for heaters, one for everything else.

I have bloody answered! Please read my replies. You're all reading and quoting each other but not mine. Maybe I should check out another forum...

But as I understand the storage heater consumer unit is connected to the same electricity meter. It's essentially nothing more than a timer for all the storage heaters. Surely if I use a timer and set the operational hours to those corresponding to the off peak economy 7 hours I can take...

I get that what I'm proposing to do is not considered good practice. But assuming that I do go ahead with my plan and things do go wrong, what would happen? The timer/socket would fuse? Other than making sure my heater doesn't exceed the 2kw load are there any other relatively cheap safety...

Originally my garage had no electricity supply. Rather than wiring directly from the consumer unit the electrician ran a cable from a plug socket in my hall to the garage. He then fitted a smaller consumer unit in the garage and from there ran a circuit for the light and another for the sockets...

Sorry, I was directly replying to Stem's post. Is that not allowed? My storage heaters have their own fuse board. (I thought it was called a consumer unit? Clarify please.) It simply isn't feasible to run a separate cable to that board. I would need to dig up over 25 meters of concrete or duct...

How about this timer: http://www.hydrogarden.com/product/10-470-055 With this heater: https://www.electricalcounter.co.uk/products/Heating/Elnur+Storage+Heaters/Manual+&+Automatic+(SH)/Elnur+SH12M+Storage+Heater+1.7kw+Manual+(8+Brick)/1476419310

I'd like to install a storage heater in my concervatory. The other rooms of my house all contain storage heaters since there is no gas to the property. Is it necessary to run a separate cable to the economy 7 ring circuit or can I simply put a plug on the end of the heater's flex cable and...
