Discuss install 10 electric shower (8.5kw) in one hotel in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
is 80A FROM EDF NORMAL...I come across this all the time. The answer is generally no, but as pete999 says it needs a survey by competent person.
If you only have one phase then I would recommend no more than 2 but even that depends on the loading in the rest of hotel.
jean-marc. forgive me if I have the wrong end of the stick here, but it seems from the question above "I just need a diagram and the modification" , that you intend going ahead with your plans regardless of the advice given so far, is that correct?i just need a diagram and the modification
You have been given the right advice by Members, you need a survey by both the DNO and a qualified Electrical Contractor, if you choose not to agree with the advice, and go ahead regardless, then on your head be it, oh and stop shouting,I ASKED FOR ADVICE'S BUT NO ONE IS ABLE TO GIVE ME ONE
I NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO SIMPLE IF YOU CAN HELP YOU WELCOME IF NOT THAT FINE
so you're planning on installing a total load of 350A onto what is probably a 100A supply. buy a pack of BS1361-II fuses or speed dial your local DNO.I ASKED FOR ADVICE'S BUT NO ONE IS ABLE TO GIVE ME ONE

Hi everyone,Hi i would like to know if is possible to install 10 electric shower (8.5kw) in one hotel if is possible what changes do I have to make to the general electrical distribution board

Yes but this Bloke doesn't have a clue, whereas you might have a clue on how to fit a Tractor engine into a Mini, and were just asking for opinions. Forum rules don't give us the luxury pf giving out how to advice Andy78, and on top of that, Matey got all wound up, the advice given was sound advice, well meant, it was like, "tell me what to do, and I'll do it my way anyhow".I can understand this bloke's frustration. I've been on a classic mini forum asking how to put a tractor engine in one. I just wanted diagrams and for them to tell me how, but they kept telling me answers I wasn't asking for. Some people.
It's easy Andy , we managed to put a CAT tyre on this pick up.I can understand this bloke's frustration. I've been on a classic mini forum asking how to put a tractor engine in one.

Was a joke Pete. I was likening matey's request to putting a tractor engine in a mini. Sarcasm never translates well over the internet.Yes but this Bloke doesn't have a clue, whereas you might have a clue on how to fit a Tractor engine into a Mini, and were just asking for opinions.

I THINK HE MEANS PLUMBING BARMITZVAS IN PLACE OF THE ELECTRIC SHOWERS AND PLUMBING IN HOT WATER FROM A CENTRAL SOURCE.Ummm what?
Ahhhhhhh.......he’ll want the wet pants forum now then......that’ll go just as well I’m sureI THINK HE MEANS PLUMBING BARMITZVAS IN PLACE OF THE ELECTRIC SHOWERS AND PLUMBING IN HOT WATER FROM A CENTRAL SOURCE.
OR
HE COULD BE PUTTING A RADIATOR IN EACH SHOWER THAT THE GUSET CAN GUG WHILE GETTING A COLD SHOWER.

Classic Telit's OK, the hotel is owned by as bloke named Basil, married to Sybil. they have a Spanish waiter called Manual. all OP needs to do is CTFM (consult the f*cking manual).
Who did?He said something about gas ...........
Agree a chancer by any other nameThe OP probably only wants confirmation of what he's already decided. Chances are he's posted the same question on 10 forums and if one comes back with a go that'll be the one he'll accept, ignoring the other 9.
Who did?

Easy, 500L(ish) tank and a pumped circulation.Sounds more like a B&B if it's only 10 rooms. Chances of the water supply being able to do 10 electric showers are about as slim as the chances of the electrical supply being able to do it.
It might all work fine until the place gets a block booking, with most showers likely to be needed at very similar times
Yes...but that's not the same as 10 Electric showers. It's 0 Electric Showers, and unless tank is electrically heated (daft) no stress on the electrical supplyEasy, 500L(ish) tank and a pumped circulation.
Hi i would like to know if is possible to install 10 electric shower (8.5kw) in one hotel if is possible what changes do I have to make to the general electrical distribution board.
Most likely not !
Not without significant upgrades to your main DB and power feed.
Not cheap not easy but do-able.
what is your current service rated at ?
what is your current loading ?
is your service single phase or three phase ?
