Hi guys,
We've recently bought a new bungalow and the consumer unit is old. We'll be replacing as we need to add for a shower etc. Im in the process of ordering a new 10 way consumer unit and wouldnt mind confirming which ampage mcb's I need based on my description below:
Shower - 50 AMP
Cooker - 32 AMP
Kitchen Sockets, cooker hood, hob ignition - 32 AMP
Bedroom sockets, Garage sockets - 32 AMP
Lounge, Hall Sockets - 32 AMP
Lights - 6 AMP
Smoke Alarm - 6 AMP
The garage currently has lights and plug sockets, would they be ok as I have it above? I doubt anything juicy will ever be used in there but is it worth planning for the future?
Also would I have a bathroom extraction unit on its own? Obviously Im not goint to be wiring the consumer unit myself but if I can order the consumer unit ready it should help keep the costs down. Any questions comments extremely welcome - thanks.
