although the underlying question still remains as to where can you get a cable fitting Table 4E2A ??? ... and what type/BS number is it?
Please read the last paragraph in post 6. Does your equipment apply?

Indeed I did, my initial issue was a lack of data from the manufacturer ... which has since been corrected.
However ... and as there is a strong possibility the property will become a B&B / Guest House ... Table H2 the second column relating to "Small shops ... business premises" is more fitting than the "... household ... dwellings ..." column ... the former requiring allowance for 100% of largest appliance plus 80% of second etc. ... so at the time of limited information and only having a maximum demand figure of 11.3kW my initial design had to at least allow for the potential of that amount of power to be drawn ... hence looking for a flex capable of handling 50A in free air or better still clipped direct ... it would have been easier to dress the cable in than 10mm T&E.
But ... all that is now history ... although the underlying question still remains as to where can you get a cable fitting Table 4E2A ??? ... and what type/BS number is it?
Try asking some manufactures perhaps.

If you want flex then why are you looking at 4E2A, that is not the table for flex!
It does not refer to a specific bs number, it is a basic table for any unarmoured multi core with a 90degree operating temperature. Which will not be suitable for your application as the terminals you connect to will not be suitable for 90degree operation
I would hope so ... although the other fly in the ointment was trying to find a cooker connection point that is rated at 50A ... all that I have found to date are rated for 45A ... including Crabtree who I thought might be the ones to use.
Haven't got a copy of GN1 myself. But isn't reference to the small shops & business to multiples of appliances, not one, re applying diversity? ....'all now history', are you not installing the appliance now?Indeed I did, my initial issue was a lack of data from the manufacturer ... which has since been corrected.
