9.5kw Shower with 6mm cable?

bobcat · 27 Feb 2005

My old 7.5kw shower is knackered and I've bought an Essentials 8.5kw/9,5kw (medium setting and high setting). the cable run is about 8m long on 6mm twin and earth.
My CU is a relatively old (wylex) and is connected into a 32a mcb, I don't hink there is a 40a mcb available for this CU

Will this be ok??

6mm should be OK for 9.5KW. you may be able to get a fuse for it, however, it should also be RCD protected for your safety
