Hello this is my 1st post so sorry if id done anything wrong.
I have decided to install a bigger pool heater at home, Ive gone from 9kw to 15kw, when i bought it i was told it was 14.4kw and just marketed as 15kw it is single phase and i only have 2 phase's at the meter point as i live on a farm and they used to have split phase motor here so was going to use the heater on the 2nd phase as theres nothing used on it now.
I was just going to use a 63amp mcb with rcd but as it works out to 66amp i dont know the best solution as my ze=0.34 and r1+r2=0.02 as its only 6 meters away.
can you get 80amp mcb's or should i look at another type of fuse and if so what type would be best
Ive only been in the industry for 2 years so would really like some advice/ideas.
many thanks
jim
