We are installing a new shower, electric towel rail, light and fan in a bathroom. The existing mains board is a old wylex rewirable. Gas and water is 10mm bonding from the MET in the meter cupboard.
The existing mains board is litrelly inaccessiable at the back of a kitchen cupboard and would require multiple brand new units removing to even access, let alone getting a 10mm to for a 9.5kW shower and add RCd protection to existing circuits.
My idea is to run a submain around the outside of the building in SWA into a small cupboard next to the bathroom and have a dedicated board for the bathroom which i can then protect as needed.
However due to no access to where the supply enters the building to mount my switch fuse my only option is to put something in the meter cuoboard.
There is already a smart meter in the cupboard however not ebough room for a 63A switch fuse. There is however ebough room for a small 3 way unit, in which i plan to install a a 100A DP switch disconnector and 63A MCB. The max Zs reading or the B63 60898 will not be exceeded by the submain.
Can anyone see a issue with this or think ill get any comeback by the DNO? Cheers
