6mm2 should be OK

It still depends on method of installation of the cable . Does it run through thermal insulation? Is the cable run along side other cables? What's the ambient temperature in the sauna and it's effect on the cable temperature? Is the heater rating of 8kW at 240 0r 230 Volts? All...

The fact that the fuse is still 'cooking' with a lower rated shower is indicative of a bad connection in the fuse holder. Probably covered in carbon residue which would cause a higher resistance and more heating. This is not something that can be repaired as a quick fix in the next 4 hrs...

I have done both but plaster before second fix is preferred especially when posh chrome accesories are used.
