    Consumer unit change - is cable size corrct?

    I may get another spark out to check but on this basis the 10.5kw 40 a mcb just needs to be changed to a 45a mcb and the 8.5kw from a 32a to a 40a. That means only one 45a mcb is needed to be purchased. Is it safe to use in the mean time until I get someone to do that?

    Consumer unit change - is cable size corrct?

    So should he have replaced mcbs with 40 & 45 amp even tho cable is only 6mm? Isn't it safe to also assume either shower won't be used at its maximum load ( 8.5kw = 35a & 10.5kw = 44amp) and are only used at about 80%. There isn't a 35a mcb for the 8.5 kw so wouldn't 40amp mcb be to high? And...

    Consumer unit change - is cable size corrct?

    Hi EFLImpudence Really appreciate your help. So it's safe but means mcbs may need replacing sooner as can over heat more? That isn't the end of the world. I've just looked at the cable and it looks slightly bigger than the cooker cable (6mm) but it doesn't look 10mm. Was 8mm ever used...

    Consumer unit change - is cable size corrct?

    Isn't that why he has put the 40amp breaker on the 10.5kw shower so the mcb will trip if the shower pulls to much to protect the cable from over heating? Regards the 8.5kw shower how is the 32amp iffy? Please explain ? 8500 / 240 = 35amp so that's a maximum pull of only 3 amps more than the...

    Consumer unit change - is cable size corrct?

    Hi My mother in law has just had a new fuse board fitted. The electrician informed us that the 2 showers in the house (1 a 10.5kw & 1 a 8.5kw) are each fed by 6mm cable. The 8.5kw was on a 40a cartridge fuse and the 10.5kw on a 45a cartridge fuse. He said the cable is sufficient for the 8.5...
