Electric Shower Problem

[shagbite]

i'd say that's a 6mm cable, judging by the cpc - a 10mm t&e cpc would be stranded.

the shower looks like it's 9.5kw which is pushing it for a 6mill cable (depending on circuit length & installation method).

Whats the betting that you cant get that cable core out of the remains of the connector .... experience tells me so :smart:

Them tiles and grout look pretty new too. Whats the chance that it another jack off all install to sell the house

When I saw that it was wired up to a cooker switch in the landing I did have my suspicions.

Not necessarily a cooker switch unless it's one of those with a socket alongside it?!

Is it actually possible that that cable is 4mm? I has one of these last year, 9.5kw shower on 4mm. And the cable was run in insulation.

Well, he definitely needs an electrician to look at this one.
