[ample current]

Hello all,

What would you concider to be the ambient tempurature inside an airing cupboard be if you were to run a cable through it so it can be derated accordingly.

stick a thermometer in for a couple of hours. somewhere around 80-85 deg. F. IMO.

I reckon if your airing cupboard is that hot you should replace the "thermal" jacket on the tank.

mine is that hot and it;s a manufacturers lagged tank, the one with the foam jacket. small cupboard, door closed, soon get a heat build up.
