Replacing a Mira power shower

[richardhowell]

My plumber told me he would need to get an electrician to install a local RCD unit if he was to replace the shower. Is this really the case considering that I have recently replaced my old fuse box with an up to date RCD consumer unit?

no you have one in your new consumer unit.

do you have any spare "ways" in your new CU? Maybe you are going from a electrically pumped shower to an electrically heated shower and do not have the required new "way" to install the required MCB

No - I would be replacing like-for-like with an updated version of the shower (ie. not electrically heated).
Thanks for your responses.
