    What MCB's under the new 17th Ed regs?

    Hi,

    I wonder if a fellow sparky can help with a query re: 17th Edition regulations..

    what MCB should be used for:
    • Washing Machine
    • Fridge Freezer


    ie 16A or 32A

    please advise

        cheers mate,

        so in essence, I should use 16A MCB for both Fridge Freezer and Washing Machine dedicated radial circuits?
