Hi lovely people.
Just thinking aloud here wondering if anyone has any points I should consider.
Been to do a quote on an outbuilding which has had an electrical supply for some time for lights & a couple of sockets. The building is basically a lounge with toilet & utility room.
The owner wants a shower in there (8kw) and has laid a new 10mm cable along the garden wall from the ccu to the outbuilding just for supplying the shower and now wants it connecting up. The cable enters the outbuilding at the opposite end to the existing supply.
I need to sit down and plan a design but have never supplied an out building which already has a supply and there's a couple of things I need to look into. Such as being able to isolate both supplies simultaneously. Whether to bond both supplies at the outbuiling side etc, etc...
Any suggestions or recommendations for me to take into account would be gracefully appreciated.
