    HELP...Kitchen wiring inadequacies??.

    Thanks again. Good idea with the 45A connection points then a back box for either connecting a socket face or an fcu but another slight problem is that there is nowhere to put any switched items as the cupboards are boxed in floor to ceiling so only option would be to place inside the top...

    HELP...Kitchen wiring inadequacies??.

    Thanks again chaps much appreciated but I think you will find that the whole purpose of this post was because I disagreed with the drawings that were sent to me and wanted to confirm this so I could wire this as per most of the advice so the general confirmation is what I was after although if...

    HELP...Kitchen wiring inadequacies??.

    Many thanks for the reply's to date. Up until a couple of years ago one of the companies I work for were NICEIC registered and obviously part P was automatic when a fully registered member but we let this go when we wound that side of the company down. I will be going through local building...

    Help Needed!!

    Yep sorry about that, Risteard is right. Although your calculations are correct the regs (including the on-site guide) state you should assume a min of 100w at each point. Should have remembered they always try to catch you with that one. Long time ago.

    Help Needed!!

    Hi Sparky, You dont need any help, what you have done is correct. We used to say 1KW (1000 watts) was 4amp just for ease but on actual figues using 230v you are spot on.
