Hi, does anyone know why this cable has burnt out? It's the supply to a 8kw shower, I could smell a bit of burning lately and when I've looked in the switch I found this, I'm sure the cables are about 6mm, the red and black is the cable from the board and the brown and blue go to the shower.
It's been in now for about two years and the shower gets used daily.
I thought it might be because both live wires were touching and got hot??
Before the comments come about getting an electrician I've already sorted one that's coming to look at it but wanted a bit of info first.
Thanks.
