Can you not look it up in the BGB?

what do you think it is, im sure we can tell you if it is correct or not( with some more info from you)

Just determine the cable characteristics and look in the regs!

Probably around 40-45 amps at a wild stab in the dark guess, maybe less but you will need to look in the Bible to be sure, too tired and worn out to look for you haha

Thanks all for your words wisdom I will get the regs out and return with answers

Are you ''Sure'' it's 4mm?? Also MICC comes in two grades light and heavy duty??

 

[MDJ]

If heavy duty another 2 to 3 amps could be added, I will check the 44 amps myself later to see if he's right lol

I thinnk 45amps are enough.
