Hi Simon Thanks. Have been over to the flat and had proper look with some new 10mm T+E to reference to. Definitely 10mm T+E that i have. Unfortunately wired via double pole switch to the RCD but only to a b rated 32b fuse. It is not sat under the 63A rccb either so won't trip....does it need...

Hi I meant that each of the sheath within the twin and earth is made of 3 cables - so the earth wire for example is 3 strands of copper, each approx 1mm thick, twisted together and sheathed in green and yellow, which then with the other two cables, each also made up of 3 copper strands each...

Yes, i spotted the head bit, and actually no sure that i could get tank any higher than the cold water part of the combination tank, it is on a platform raising it to the ceiling, but with the shower on a slightly raised tray...thinking there might be a problem here. Any sparky/plumbers in...

If mixers aren't going to work either, a venturi might... that's a good call... they look difficult to get hold of... looks like the trevi boost is less unit based, but the newteam jetstream is unit based...are there others on the market...where would be the best place to buy one... a lot of...

Thanks Whitespirit. If i went with the not very promising sounding mixer idea: a.) could i put in a regulator of some sort to regulate the cold/ hot pressure imbalance (which i would get if i used cold mains and cylinder hot)...mind you then i'm back at the pressure from the hot water...

I suspected as much - essentially ruling out options of power shower and pump (which there is no room for anyway). presumably nothing has changed and you can still not pump mains water? Means only option is upgrade cabling and use cold mains feed already there, but with a higher kw electric...

I think perhaps replacing with a 10mm is the only option, and getting a 10kw electric. In terms of my options for a power shower, could the cold part of my combination cylinder run a power shower as i have no separate cold tank, or would it run dry too quickly and cause an airlock...the total...

I have a combination heating cylinder with a disconnected eco 7 option, and the "normal" elec running the other immersion. I thought when i first purchased the flat several years ago that there was a New Team power shower installed, as i remember pressure being high, and there were selections...
