Hi Everyone,
I am currently looking to upgrade my current electric shower with a power shower.
Whilst doing some research on what I currently have and how I can go about the upgrade I noticed that my current shower has a MCB at the CU. I believe the shower should be protected with a RCD however, is this correct?
This is my current CU:
Is there a RCD further down the line in the switch that hangs from the ceiling or is this something I need to get replaced? Is it as simple as swapping a MCB out with a RCD?
Not going to start ripping wiring out don't worry, just like to know how it's all meant to work.
Thanks
