Nu aire drimaster

[martyndc88]

Hi.

I'm fitting a drimaster heat at home. As it has a heater can I wire it into the lighting circuit or should I wire it to the ring main?

Thanks

What wattage is it?

 

[martyndc88]

400 watts

That's too much for the lighting circuit, take a spur off your ring circuit.

It's not really. It's less than 2A.

6A circuit sill leaves capacity for 196 x 5W LED lamps (or 19 x 50W).

It's not really. It's less than 2A.

Which is 30+% of a standard lighting circuit, that's why it should be connected to a power circuit

What has 30% got do do with it?

It would be 12½% of mine - so what?

Gibberish

I guess we should not be surprised that you regard something sensible as gibberish - it's the other side of the coin you often show us.

When did you go round there and find out what else he has on that lighting circuit?

Was he not in when you did that, or did the impression you gave him lead him to think he would get nowhere asking you for advice?

I know what I'm doing, you guess. And supporting another EFL cryptic reply doesn't help anyone.

You said that "What has 30% got do do with it? It would be 12½% of mine - so what?" was unintelligible or meaningless writing.

I can see how you would think that being challenged over that doesn't help you.
