    Max demand problem

    First post - be gentle. Just changed a consumer unit and am struggling with the "max demand" bit on the paperwork. RCD is 100A, Main fuse is 100A, it has 2 showers (50 A each) no diversity allowed on showers. so, um, not much room for anything else. .....or am I being a moron? Thanks Jim
