Hi guys,
Just doing an EIC for a recent dis board change, I also installed a 50a (type b 60898) shower circuit for an 11.5KW shower. I am looking through my regs trying to find whether it comes under the 5s disconnection time...? I know 0.4s is for circuits less than 32A and non-distribution circuits, so from that I would conclude that the shower is 5s, but I have heard because it is in a special location, it comes under 0.4s. Is this true? Have looked through 411.3.2.2 and also the special locations section but nothing immediately jumps out at me regarding this.
Any help would as ever be much appreciated
