Hi, I'm new to the site so hello everyone.
I'm in the process of planning a renovation to my house, part of which is fitting an electric shower, to which I just have a quick question.
Currently there is an old wooden backed Wylex fuse board, this is getting ripped out. I've got a new consumer unit to fit - It's 100A, 10 way, dual 63A RCD's and I've had it configured with 4x 32A, 2x 16A, 2x 6A, 1x 40A and 1x 45A MCB's.
The electric shower I have is a 9.5KW Mira, I have about a 12 meter run of 10mm T+E which I was going to wire into the 45A MCB, which will be on one of the 63A RCD's in the consumer unit.
Is this the correct way of doing it, or should the electric shower be on its own RCD without and other MCB's on it?
Thanks in advance.
