Cable size is dependent on current loading. My cooker actually runs on 10mm cable (diversity included) but would need 16mm if I didn't allow or diversity. So house builders are putting 4mm in which in my opinion is dangerous.

As for arguing that there might be spurs all I know is that current regs don't allow spurs for sockets in a kitchen.

I certainly brings into question all the UFH installations being done by tilers. Because I beleive this would be cased as fixed wiring it MUST be installed and certified to part p to meet the regs...

Brilliant, thanks all!

spoke to electrician who couldn't see what the issue with 200w would be, indeed like me he was thinking it'd offer better performance at very little difference in running costs. Is on separate 20amp run so miles below limit (don't worry have an MEng in electrical engineering, so not completely daft in these matters!)

whats the thoughts on decoupling membranes? Seen a few posts saying these are essential when using UFH with tiles? Are these required?
