[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 519865, member: 1607"] Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately there is too little information in your question for anyone to give an accurate answer. The cable sizes used for any circuit will be dependant upon the total load that the cable has to carry, The installation methods used, The type of protective device used to protect the cable, The maximum permissible earth loop impedance to comply with BS7671, (wiring regs), for the type of protective device used. Which must all be considered to ensure that in the event of a fault, you will not endanger people property or livestock. There are NO simple rules that say a shower must be 'X', 'Y' or 'Z'. Just as saying if I have a red or blue car what size tyres must I use? If you are unable to provide additional information, the safest solution would be, as Fleeting suggests, to get a local electrician to come and assess your exact requirements. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
