My mum was wanting to upgrade her shower - it's an 8.5kW that she has in and she was looking to get a 10.5kW shower.
I'm not sure that the cable is thick enough though. I got a bit of 10mm cable to compare the sizes and it's marginally thicker to what's in. It's on a 40amp fuse.
I'll say it's 4m from the fusebox to the shower but that's being generous as the fusebox is just outside the bathroom door.
Could a 10.5kW shower safely run on this cable (I know I'd need to put a bigger fuse in). If not, what would be the highest watt shower we could put in?
