Hi, I’m looking to get a new electric shower and have a few questions that I need help on.
I have a wylex board that currently has 3x NB05 5A type2 mcb's and 3x NB30 30A mcb's. 1x NB30 mcb is currently used for the shower supply.
The board says it has a load capacity of 63amps and has a wyles wsem RCD 100mA, with 63A load.
I presume I’m at my maximum usage on this board and the 9.5kw shower I’ve just ordered is not going to work out as I will need a NB40 40A MCB which I also presume will be too much for the wylex board that I have got.
I don’t want to mess about with any electrics and don’t want to waste money on an electrician until I can know that I got a shower that can be used on the current electrical system.
Thanks in advance for any help.
