Hi,
I'm in the middle of checking my elec. wiring, i found that the oven that rated 5.1Kw (manufacturer value), in connected to a 20A MCB in a radial circuit.
I don't think that the radial circuit is a problem, but the 20A MCB, calculating the load considering the diversity, I found that the load (which without diversity would be 22.17A), is 21.65A, the wire is 4mm2.
According to the OSG, the cable can take 37A (method 1), i'm tempted to change the MCB to 32A, any suggestions?
