Fuse Rating for Dishwasher and Washing Machine

by kbrownie » Thu Aug 02, 2007 9:20 pm

Hi Folks,
My Step daughter has a 2200 watt washing machine and 2200 watt dishwasher on the same radial circiut the wiring is 2.5 T&E. I'm I right in thinking that the fuse at ccu should be rated at around about 25 amps?
Thanks for any help.

Hi KB, yes a radial can be on a 20Amp if 2.5mm2 or 32A if on a 4.0mm2 cable , no other options.
