    FCUs - Electricity needed for 2 Digital showers

    The initial feed to the current FCU is a spur cable from a mains socket ring.

    FCUs - Electricity needed for 2 Digital showers

    Yes that was my initial idea. In series or just both connected straight to load of unswitched FCU Thanks for replying

    FCUs - Electricity needed for 2 Digital showers

    Thanks - I wanted to do that. I thought that would be viewed as 2 spurs off 1 spur. But if not that is great news.

    FCUs - Electricity needed for 2 Digital showers

    i have recently had one bathroom redone. A spur was taken from a plug in the airing cupboard and put into a switched FCU with a 3 amp fuse as per Mira digital installation. The second bathroom is now being done with another same digital shower next door to the other one. I am assuming I cannot...

    Thanks, both are eicnic registered and I have checked on the website, part p self certified competent etc. I know one of them too. The EIC and EICR seem a debated topic on IET forums.

    It is all on one RCD which is the switch also. So it’s a pain if it trips. I am having a bsthroom re done so thought made sense to do it while I had some funds. I also want all RCBos

    I have a current EICR. I am getting my cu replaced so they are all RCBos. One electrician says he can use my current EICR. Another is saying I need a new one. Could anyone help please? What does the rule book say?

    Thanks for all your help. Last question I promise. I am very interested in your comment about switched live. I did some more tests. With the switched live off (switch contacts open) there is still 70 volts showing between SL and neutral. Then normal 240 with switch contacts closed. Would you...

    I have bitten the bullet and got my guy coming. I have tested the switched live and it is working. I think it is the unit. Need to test the value the SL produces. Thanks :)

    THanks i understand what needs doing but that means another crazy expense for what seems to be a nonsense. I have been looking at the click mini grid. But it will create a massive eyesore. I think I will look for another fan that does not need this fuse. Another thread mentions some manufacturers.

    After testing the cables in they all work. The old unit plugged back in works as it should. I am thinking either the transformer unit is duff or I just wire it so the timer doesn’t work. But this 5 amp fuse thing. All my lights are now LED bulbs in the entire house, so the current they draw...
