I've recently moved into a house and would like to check please whether an immersion heater that looks recently fitted has been correctly wired.

It's rated at 3Kw and is wired with 2.5mm2 cable from a 16a MCB. The isolator switch is embossed 'immersion heater' and matches the images of 20a double-pole immersion heater isolation switches I've seen online.

Does that look ok?

Many thanks.
