Consider an immersion circuit, feeding a 3kw Immersion Element.
It is wired in seven metres run of 1.5.mm.sq.cable clipped direct to the surface.
The Circuit protection is a B32 breaker. There is NOT a 13amp fuse-connection unit inline.
The ZS at the immersion was measured to be Twelve Ohms exactly.
This is clearly over the disconnection time requirement for the B32 breaker.
I would personally Code One it as a faulty circuit.
Would others agree with me that it's a Code One fault??
I have heard some people just ignore it, as OH, but the Immersion will never overload the cable, stuff the High ZS attitude, who cares!!....
