    Replacing shower. Electrics info please.

    Thanks JohnW2. Your presumptions are correct. The image requested of my Consumer Unit shows all it is. The Single Phase Watt Meter Reader is outside and goes straight to the CUnit. So to recap please, I will be okay to buy the Gainsborough 105 SE shower and with the Hager ADN150 1 Module...

    Replacing shower. Electrics info please.

    That did cross my mind but not knowing anything didn't really look into it. So which is best: single pole or double pole please? The suggested single pole RCBO looks to be the best option as it doesn't mean I have to break into the cabling (which is behind plaster board, up in the loft...

    Replacing shower. Electrics info please.

    Thanks JohnW2. I agree. The reg's in this instance are for the safety of the user to which I agree. Just a hassle that it will cost me extra for the RCD and an electrician to fit it. Once again, thanks to all for their input. This place has definitely helped. :wink:

    Replacing shower. Electrics info please.

    Thank you Taylortwocities. As for the RCD, I am not sure what you mean by it. :? The cable comes from the Consumer unit up into the bathroom and is connected to the shower on/off switch. From there straight to the shower.

    Heater uncontrollable on shower

    I have tried your test of removing the shower head to see what happens. Unfortunately, the problem still exists. The flow is obviously stronger but still the High, Medium and Low setting lights still come on when the Low setting is set with the water very hot and obviously the wrong heat for...
