French electrics and radiators

[KeithC]

Hi Guys,
Anyone here up on the French regs?
I have a house in France which has no heating so was looking at electric rads. Just wondering can I plug them into existing sockets, run a new radial circuit dedicated just to rads or a new radial circuit for each individual rad like washing macines, dishwashers, tumble driers etc?
Cheers,
Keith.

I wouldn't say I'm "up on" French regs but it's my understanding that they like everything to be on its own circuit, to the extent that a British electrician would find it excessive.

how many rads are you putting on and kw

My Sis has a house in France. They do like everything on separate circuits.
Why not?
Everything is labelled so you know where you are...

It's good to see they have moved on from the old cross-plies then!

Never mix them! Remember the Austin Maxi in the advert?!
