[QUOTE="GEM Electrics, post: 493618, member: 32465"] No, hot water is by gas. The figure per room is taken from a respected study (can't remember the name off hand) and works out to 2.3 to 2.9 amps per room with diversity applied. The big guzlers are the kitchen with oven at 90Amps dishwasher at 30Amps and three toasters at 12Amps each, thats 156Amps just for those three and I don't think I can claim diversity on any of them at 8am. Then the Air Con at 465Amps. It might be said that they will not pull full power until maybe 3pm, could I off set them against the kitchen? [/QUOTE]
