sfs

Gents
How do you all feel about running a sfs from the ring for underfloor heating at 11 amps max according to the manufacturer ? It would be a bit over the 2kw dedicated circuit recommended by bs7671 ? But as usual called in too late !!

Rather depends on the potential loading of the RFC

Light loading as kitchen appliances on own ring I was more concerned about running the sfs at near max for long periods.

Why is there no thanks button showing on my iPhone ?

Is the heating mat thermostatically controlled?
There never is a thanks button showing on an iphone. No idea why.

It doesn't always show on my PC either.

That explains the thanks button then ! So thanks Gentlemen
Yes it's on a stat so I suppose will only be pulling max on start up.

What's the problem with feeding 11 amps from a 13 amp fcu? Would you not run anything higher than 10 amps through a 13 amp 3-pin mains plug then? Daz

Good point Daz but wanted to be sure about running near to max for long periods but the stat wiil keep it right. My mind recalls the test in connections magazine about running on max for long periods so just made me think to check with the years of experience you all have.
Cheers
