Hiya all, I was "Ordered" by the wife to revamp the bathroom. this meant removing the old bath which had a power shower over head which drew cold water from the loft tank and hot water from the immersion heater.
to my surprise i found out the shower was wired to the cooker socket down stirs ??? ( Not by me ) Damn i thought this is wrong, anyways I'm reciting with a new shower tray and enclosure,
I have a new power shower which i have plumed in similar as before. Now to the power to the shower .... Its a Triton power shower rated at 240v and 120w the cable i bought is 2.5mm with a rating of 27Amps i got a PowerBreaker ( H92MP ) which has a 30mA trip.
the breaker is 13 amps the nearest power would be the immersion heater, but this is 20 Amps could i use this ?? the only other nearest option would be to use a downstairs 13 amp socket this would mean running the cable up on the outside wall to the bathroom.
any advice please ... Thanks
