Hello
I am considering ( actually the wife is demanding ) fitting a new electric shower into a downstairs shower room. We currently have a 7.5kw fitted with 6mm² cable on a 32amp MCB. The cable run from the CU is 10m. I just have a couple of questions I would appreciate opinions on.
1 - can I fit a 8.5kw shower to this cable size?
2 - is a 10.5kw shower noticably better ( flow/temp ) than an 8.5kw ? I know it must be better but can you feel the difference ( the 10.5kw would be fitted with 10mm² cable - and that will be another story )
Thanks for any advice
