Hi all,
The cable supplying an immersion heater is getting warm when in opperation. In opperation for 2 hours per day. Cable warms up in a few mins.
Seperate radial on 16A MCB.
Cable length approx: 18 meters.
Can not work out cable CSA without callipers, it looks like 2.5mm (will measure tomorrow).
Switched of breaker at CU untill I find the problem.
Am I correct in asuming the cable is too small, hence the heat?
Any ideas?
Thanks
