Discuss Max immersion heater on 60A circuit? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
Thanks ?. That's what I'd come up with but wasn't sure if it needed extra capacity, a bit like a pump starting up.14 kWatt. 240 x 60 = 14,400. watts. that size of heater would be best on a 3 phase supply. then it's only 20A/phase. and of course, 2.5mm cable as opposed to 10mm.
No, an immersion heater is normally a purely resistive load.wasn't sure if it needed extra capacity, a bit like a pump starting up.
OP it depends what the supply voltage is14 kWatt. 240 x 60 = 14,400. watts. that size of heater would be best on a 3 phase supply. then it's only 20A/phase. and of course, 2.5mm cable as opposed to 10mm.
