No one will be able to give an accurate answer without a lot more detail. This work is notifiable so unless you are able to test, certify and notify you'll be breaking the law.
Get an electrician in to undertake a proper assessment of your needs and advise you accordingly.
 
Cuzzy ... you may be amused or peed off with all the indirect answers this is because you haven't supplied anything like the info required ... your having 2 heavy loads fitted too yet no ratings given and we don't know the existing loading on your supply ... really need to get someone in or supply us with all required info.
 
Sound like someone has spent a little too much on the extension and trying to save a bit of cash, besides its only a few wires how hard can it be?. Please don't injure yourself and get an electrician in.
