Hi, I'm looking to add a bathroom pump. I'm wondering where I can get the power from? The spur pictured is feeding an immersion heater. The pump to be fitted currently has a socket but unfortunately its under 3m from the bath. Bit stuck so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I changed 3 x 125A fuses for 3 x 125A D type MCBs (ABB). They held for a day and then two started tripping, we didn't have any spare 125A, so we fitted 100A C type and the issue has disappeared, can anyone shed any light on this for me please?
