10.5kw shower works on a 32 amp T1 MCB (via a 6mm t/e cable)

[PeteTheFeat]

The ELFI is 0.4 ohms. It is also protected by a 30mA RCD. Can I leave it on?

 

[Darkwood]

From what stance are you asking... we cannot answer you till you at least explain the nature of your question...I.E. Are you doing an inspection and test ??

 

[Anthony S]

You won't get many bites

 

[Leesparkykent]

Here's a question for baldsparkie lol

 

[SPARTYKUS]

Wind up

Here's a question for baldsparkie lol

Someone is trying to bait him in then hook him up lol

 

[Leesparkykent]

Not me mate, but I thought showers were his strong point lol. I'm only yanking his chain it's good to have a bit of banter! Some people take it more serious than others that's all.

You could recommend another shower in the ensuite on the same circuit if you want ....

Personally I'd rip the cable out for scrap and run it on a 2.5mm T&E

is the fan running from the shower?

No that would overload it.

I was talking about the op lol

Nothing bothers me mate, I like a good p*ss and find other trades on site especaily plumbers have a better sense of humour than a lot sparks do lol

Yup very true, they are clowns alright and we are tradesmen, we have to take it serious, electricity kills people, a leaking pipe will not, nuff said, n it.

 

[telectrix]

and i'm just wondering what an ELF has got to do with it. santa's grotto closed weeks ago.

Clearly you never heard of a water laden ceiling collapsing and killing.... don't underestimate the power of a little drip :icon12:

 

[telectrix]

never underestimate a pi$$ed off plumber>

Now if we go back to that ridiculous thread about cable size.

If we knew the cable length and the measured voltage at the origin we could work out the volt drop[SUP]1[/SUP] and the resultant load[SUP]2[/SUP].

As I recall it needs a quadratic equation for the two variables [SUP]1[/SUP] & [SUP]2[/SUP].

Forget it! Its 45 years since I last worked this out and it gave me a headache then.

Yeah some people are just extravagant.
