I need to replace my leaking and slightly melted electric shower. It's a Newlec NL9216 Calypso Plus. The label on the top gives a supply rating of 9.5kW and a loading rating of 8.7kW. The supply cable is 6mm, only 5m long and not through insulation. Protected by a B32 Wylex breaker. I think a loose connection on the neutral to the elements caused the overheating.
Can I replace with a 9.5kW shower, or should it be a 8.5kW max?
Thanks for replies.
