    Regulations for burying cable in wall

    Nope, none. Although when cables are fitted too shallow the plaster tends to crack.

    CU Change - with a PV install

    When the main fuse gets pulled the inverter shuts down automatically. There should be a rotary isolator by the fuseboard which you can shut off if you want. Yes it will restart once you reconnect the power (sometimes takes a few minutes to sync with the grid AC).

    I am an electrician and have recently been refurbishing a large house for myself. I have brought tradesmen in because: they can do it faster than me, to a better standard than me, I can be off on my own jobs while theyre working. It is probably the same for you.

    Can two electric showers be fitted in a house.

    I would look at a different way of showering first. What about a unvented cylinder and thermostatic showers? If all else fails I think you can buy a interlock switch that, as you say, only allows you to use one shower at a time. Repost in electrics forum for advice on that.
