What breaker size is it for a 6mm 8.5kw shower 32 amp?Everybody seems to obsessed with 10mm on a 40 or 50amp breaker thats all over 9kw?

 
Manator posted a splendid account centred upon WHY

conductor size WOULD increase for reasons that included

ambient temperature and insulation.

It is recent and highly informative. 

I have no idea what he was on at the time but whatever it

was, the lucidity of his thinking was never impaired.

If you have done a design for the circuit you will know or is your name Bob?

Bob it in that will do?

as an 'electrician', charging people for your services / knowledge / experience, then you should be more than cable of designing a basic circuit

 
Leave it out Andy, I think most of us at some point on one or more forums have helped this guy with every job he's done. I've lost count of how many times we've recommended he works with a more experienced spark to learn.

but we shouldnt have to help him out with every job. something different he hasnt came accross before yes, but come on. this is basic stuff he cant figure out. and he seems to dumb to understand that he shouldnt be working on his own with his knowledge / experience

 
I anticipate an 'only following a qualified guys instructions' defence somewhere down the line . .
