Damn fool electrical questions
We have a combined heat and light unit in the bathroom that has failed.
One of these. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ceiling-Mou.../dp/B006Z96748 It's a pretty ancient and lethal design, but apparently it's approved for Zone 3 in the bathroom. This particular light is actually in zone 2, but it could be moved pretty easily to zone 3. Can anyone suggest a combined heat and light fitting that is less lethal than this one and suitable for zone 2, please? Or even zone 3? The right way to do this is to run a spur off the ring main, but that would involve channelling the walls, as there's no 13 amp supply above the ceiling. So, I think it's sensible to opt for something that runs off the lighting circuit. Finally, there is an immersion heater in the bathroom. I suppose I could take a spur off the supply to that, but I'll have to check the fuse rating and the immersion heater power consumption. |

If set to 1kW you may be able to power it from the immersion supply if the immersion supply is a standard supply ie In old money an immersion is 3kW at 240V so ran at 12.5A Adding an extra 1kW would push this up to 16.6A, Normally this would be fed from a 16A MCB or 15A fuse and would not cause a problem.

It's a round quartz heater and light.
Used to be used in bathrooms some years ago before central heating was used. I have a 750 w heater in the bathroom running off a light circuit its been in for years. Not being able to see what you have, what makes you say its lethal? -- Adam |

The whole unit is made of metal. no problem The user who was present at the time says it went bang but didn't blow any of the fuses. element failure is the most likely culprit It may not even be earthed! it may be anything, but most likely it's a heater that has been installed sanely.

"Yes, 230 V fittings may be installed above a shower or bath but they must be at least IPX4, i.e. enclosed and water protected." Was that heater / light IPX4? And it would (now?) have to be on an RCD (and would a light cct typically / traditionally be on a RCD)?. Cheers, T i m |

The OP did say it was earthed. Now he also said that the house was built in 1970 (lighting circuits were required to be earthed from 1966). However as you have pointed out it needs to be properly earthed. The presence of an earth wire (cpc) does not mean that it is earthed. It would now be a good time whilst replacing the fitting to test the earth. It does not need to be a earth loop tester, a simple multimeter is all that is needed. I would, if at work, take an earth loop reading and record it on my job sheet. -- Adam |

Damn fool electrical questions
I think the heater we had would be more lethal now than when it was
installed in 1971, the reason being that we installed a shower at one end of the bath. So, people are standing in the bath, rather than sitting. Anyway, I have installed an IP44 light in place of the heater, and a downflow heater protected by an RCD at the opposite side of the bathroom to the bath. Really, the whole house needs a re-wire. There are no RCDs in the consumer unit, which has rewireable ceramic fuseholders. I would replace the consumer unit, except that I have no idea how the whole system is wired. There are three consumer units, and it's complicated by the economy 7 wiring. I have no idea why there are 3 consumer units, and nothing is labelled. Nearly all the wiring is hidden behind the board the CUs are mounted on. On the other hand, I had a look at the lighting circuit whilst I was up in the loft, and the cable appears to be in good condition. I had one of the power points out, and again the cable seemed fine. I haven't taken the bath panel off, but I bet there's no earth bonding. OTOH, it's all copper pipework, so that helps. |
