My son worked for the Brush transformer site at Loughborough and many moons ago I did my apprenticeship with Brush Switchgear then they moved it down to South Wales, I understand its moving back to Loughborough. But keeping on track have a great Christmas.

We have 3 lads and they are all grown up. They will all be going to their other half's parents for Christmas so we will be on our Jack Jones (no problem with that). SWMBO has her birthday on the 28th Dec so I said "sod it" and we are of to Gran Canaria for Christmas.

Per Rangemaster FAQ dated 10/11/16 "Ceramic and induction models may be connected to a suitable 6mm cable with a 32A breaker (providing the isolator switch does not incorporate a 13A socket)"
It also states in the owners handbook " Installation to comply with BS7671", which tells you how to...
