Hi all.
I have a question about shower fuses and cable sizes etc.
I believe (i admit this is just from seeing the external part of the wire and not the internal core size) that i have a 10mm cable - i will obviously check this first.
I also believe (again i will check this first) that my fuse on my consumer unit is only 32A.
My questions are, if i buy a shower which is 9.5kw,
a) will my cable (if it is 10mm core) be ok?
b) would it be as simple as changing out the fuse for a bigger one?
c) is there a table anywhere which will tell me recommended cable size and fuse size for each kw shower rating?
Thanks in advance.
