Turn on the water supply to the shower unit and check for leaks up stream of the
shower unit. If all is sound turn off the water supply to the shower unit.
Ensure the water pressure to the shower unit is within the minimum and
maximum requirements by following the pressure testing procedure -

BEFORE ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IS ATTEMPTED, THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY MUST BE TURNED OFF AT THE MAIN SWITCH.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN ELECTROCUTION
The electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified person
in accordance with IEE (Institution of Electrical Engineers) wiring
regulations (BS 7671)
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. IN THE INTERESTS OF
ELECTRICAL SAFETY, A 30mA RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD)
SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ALL UK 230-240V ELECTRIC SHOWERS
AND PUMPED CIRCUITS. THIS MAY BE PART OF A CONSUMER UNIT
OR A SEPARATE UNIT
A suitably rated double-pole isolating switch for supply disconnection
must be incorporated in the fixed wiring circuit in accordance with
current wiring rules. This must have a mechanical indicator showing when
the switch is in the OFF position. A neon lamp alone is not sufficient. (See
the electrical rating chart for minimum switch rating). If it is fitted in the
bathroom it must be the cord-operated type. The switch must be readily
accessible and clearly identifiable in zone 3, i.e. at 0.6metres horizontally
from the shower cubicle or edge of the bath, or located above zone 2
(i.e. adjacent to the shower cubicle or bath, but at least 2.25metres from
the floor) as detailed below. This requirement does not apply to the pull
cord from the switch.
Where shower cubicles are located in rooms other than bathrooms, any
socket outlet in the room must be situated at least 3 metres from the
shower cubicle and protected by a 30mA RCD.
