Hi Guys I'm looking to add a couple of appliances in a new bathroom to a new consumer unit. They are a whirlpool bath (posh eh?) and a macerater (err, less posh.) Anyway, I'm not yet connecting these to the existing fuse board as I'm redoing all the electrics. So, I'm rewiring everything to...

We've recently moved into a 50's built bungalow. MY own fault then, I here you cry. Installed in said bungalow is the biggest, heaviest piece of **** I've have ever had to consider using. I of course refer to a Rayburn!!. Why people get all whimsical over these monoliths is beyond me. We've...
