storage heater flex

[skye16]

Hi
I have a storage heater with a damaged flex, from the heater to the switch.
What flex do I need to replace this? Where can I buy about one metre of it?
Thanks for any help.

What size is the heater?

What markings are on the existing cord?

I can't see any writing on the old flex.
Thanks for helping.

1.5mm² or 2.5mm² heat resistant flex is what you need. Go to any of the "sheds" and look for immersion heater cable. That'll do you fine.
