Hi, i'm doing the bathroom at the moment including replacing the shower. I've taken the old shower out (which does appear to be 9.5kw), and started looking at putting the new one in (definately 9.5kw). I'm not excatly an expert, but it seems that the existing wiring is only 6mm2 not 10mm2 (i think!), and the cartridge fuse in the CU is only 30A. We've been in the house 3 years and never actually had a problem with the old shower, but according to the installation instructions for the new one, 10mm2 wiring and 45A fuse should be used. Did whoever installed the old shower do it wrong and left us with a bit of a fire risk? Or am i ok just to put the new one in?!
Cheers
