Re: x10 over three phase

[Phil Lenfestey <phil@xxxxxxx>]

I've done some homework and my numbers come up thus:

Main fuse (circuit breaker actually):  63A

Loads:
24 sockets (12 doubles) which presumably have to be rated at 13A each.
9 lights
One single oven cooker, which according to the instructions can be wired
to a 13A plug.
Gas Boiler rated at 3A

Now, clearly I don't understand how they work out what total load my
board should take, because 24 sockets at 13A comes to 312 Amps already,
which is mad.

My shower wants to draw 45 Amps.

Thanks.  I must say I'm very impressed at all the help I'm getting from
