shower help

[akashortie]

Evening guys. Just come home to find internal plastics on our electric shower perished causing water going everywhere. Isolation sorted.

So its new shower time. Current shower is a mira sport 7.5

Question is can I upgrade to an 8.5 or 9.5 or do my electrics mean I am limited to another 7.5?

Hopefully some photos below show[/quote]

To give us a clearer idea on the size of the cable, is the earth wire within that cable 'solid' or 'stranded'?

It's solid

It's a 6mm² cable then, so 40A is your maximum.

So does that mean I have to stick with a 7.5kw
