Of course some people still bang on about balancing the loads on a

They also ignore the point that a 20A protected radial could run
indefinitely with a pair of 13A fan heaters, and a cable de-rated to
20A
- but that would also spoil their argument. ;-)


Which cable is rated at 20A?
Not 2.5 mm T&E.


Indeed not, if the cable is run in conduit its only rated at 18.5A



Are you and dennis competing against each other for the thick **** of the
year award?
