You can use normal 3 core cable after the 6amp MCB. Before tt, you'll have to find the suitable cable size Studied before, but forget liao...

robe Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 USe 2.5 mm2 cable size minimum as a lot of 3 core wire uses only 1.5 mm2 wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhansolo Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 especially the incoming ones.......?????? Make sure the point you use is connected directly to the house ELCB point, if not you might just create an overload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorizonVentures Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 USe 2.5 mm2 cable size minimum as a lot of 3 core wire uses only 1.5 mm2 wires. That's:3 core x 70.
