Shower circuit design.

Sparkingchip

Why would an electrician install a 10 mm twin and earth circuit protected by a B32 MCB for a 8.5 kW shower?

    I think that I have said before that there is no such thing as “nuisance tripping”, just bad design.

    I agree that the B32 MCB is unlikely to trip during a shower of a normal duration, but that is not really the point.

    I agree with Sparkingchip on this one.
