Back in 2007 I replaced an old Mira Shower with an Essentials Mira Shower on the existing wire work. The shower is rated at 9.5kw the same as the old one and is on 10mm twin and earth cable. As the installation was carried out post 2005 when the new regs came into effect. Is this allowable? The old consumer unit has a 40A MCB and no RCD component. What would you advise as I am thinking of putting my house up for sale and have been made aware of the questions that may be asked about electrical changes and certificates of conformity. Any Ideas on this one? I am not an electrician or a registered competent person, but have passed the P.A.T. component of the. ( In-service Inspection and testing of Electrical Equipment ) at C&G level back in 2003.
