Very stupid question I know but its for a double garage that already has a supply.
The reason I'm having a new consumer unit fitted and was hoping to re-use the current SWA in place though I don't know the size
Any one know the outside diameters of 4 core SWA or the outside diameter of a single core within the SWA?
Anyway I'm being lazy I would like to buy a RCBO that is capable of meeting my needs while not overloading the cable now? any advice?
currently it is protected by a 20 amp fuse which would give around 5kw
though i estimate (overly)
Outside lighting (1kw)
Inside (0.6kw)
Heater (3kw)
Pond Electrics (0.1kw)
Though I'm guessing i could apply diversity i would say allot of those things are running when i'm their
could i put a 40amp RCBO on 4mm cable over 50 meters with the idea of upgrading it to 10mm in future
