The installation, supply cable and circuit
protection must conform with bS7671 (IEE
wiring regulations) and be sufficient for the
amperage required.
The following notes are for guidance only:
1 The shower must only be connected to a
230-240V ac supply. If you are installing a
shower with a kilowatt rating above 9kW, it
is advisable to contact the local electricity
supply company.
1.1 The electrical rating of the shower is shown
on the rating label (fig.) within the unit.
2 before making any sort of electrical
connection within the installation make
sure that no terminal is live. If in any doubt,
switch off the whole installation at the
consumer unit.

independent electrical circuit. IT MUST
nOT be connected to a ring main, spur,
socket outlet, lighting circuit or cooker
circuit.
3.1 The electrical supply must be adequate for
the loading of the unit and existing circuits.
4 Check your consumer unit (main fuse box)
has a main switch rating of 80A or above
and that it has a spare fuse way which will
take the fuse or MCb necessary for the
shower
(fig.) .
4.1 If your consumer unit has a rating below
80A or if there is no spare fuse way, then
the installation will not be straightforward
and may require a new consumer unit
serving the house or just the shower.
4.2 You will need to contact the local electricity
company. They will check the circuit and
carry out what is necessary. They will also
check the main bonding.
