I have a broken Mira Sport 7.5kw shower and wish to replae it. I have seen an excellent buy at Homebase which is a easy to fit universal fittings Bristan 8.5kw would this be suitable, I'm sure it will fit but am unsure about the wattage being ok? The cable currently is 6mm.

You not only need to consider the cable size, but also the fuse/contact breaker protecting the fuse.
8.5KW is about 37amps (at 230V).
What is the fuse size in the shower circuit?
