Hi, I want to move one of my storage heaters approx 2.5m from its current location, clearly the current cable is not going to be long enough. I understand that the cable from the switch to the heater must be heat resistant and I want to avoid rewiring the heater and running the heat resistant cable for such a distance. Would I simply be able to replace the existing switch with a junction box, run additonal 16A twin and earth cable to the point that i will be re-siting the switch and then reconnect the heater from there?
The sight of the cable is not a concern as it will be blocked by furniture.
Thanks in advance
