Most sensible suggestion all bloody night.LOLSod the electric and fit a nice thermostatic mixer off of the combi hot and cold.
As long as you work out a discount with Warburtons, it can be quite cost effective.How do you get registered to be a TSR is it a long or expensive course

All I am saying to you is check you are insured to undertake electrical work however small you think it may be. By the way I have got a life.
As long as you know how to wire it up, reckon you'll be just fine ;-))Do you have to be qualified to put in a mixer shower ?? :29:
no, just prove competenceDo you have to be qualified to put in a mixer shower ?? :29:
On the subject of regs, wireless electricity is just about a decade a way. No plugs, no cables, just one big control box, digitally controlled by a computer. Wonder what that will do for a sparks career?
From a Triton MIYes that is what I said, it should be sized to suit the load and run, and increased if the run is a long one. But 10mm is now the minimum and any M.I I've read recently states this.
I would worry more about what it would do to those living with it.On the subject of regs, wireless electricity is just about a decade a way. No plugs, no cables, just one big control box, digitally controlled by a computer. Wonder what that will do for a sparks career?

9.2 In the majority of installations, the cable
will unavoidably be placed in one or more
of the above conditions. This being so, it
is strongly recommended to use a
minimum of 10mm cabling throughout
the shower installation.
9.3 In any event, it is essential that individual
site conditions are assessed by a competent
electrician in order to determine the correct
cable size and permissible circuit length.
What that basically says is stick a 10mm in and it should be fine but not always. It could require a bigger cable (16mm) or you may be able to safely use a 6mm if it is a short surface run.
That is why it is best left to those who know how to work it out to do the work and take the responsibility.
Same as gas.
TBF Chum no its notTbf bud a large part of that life seems to be winding people up.
Who in their right mind would pass up a job as simple as wiring a shower? If you get there and the cable/isolation/fuse looks dodgy then you walk away. Simple.
It's better to put 10mm cable in. A 7.5kW shower will be fine on 8mm cable. But, say a year later you are comming back to the same house - a 10kW shower needs to go in... DOH! 10mm cable has to run that. Why not to put 10mm in the first place!?
oh no it isntcmon alex we left the thread a long way back, it wireless leccy and panto land now!
Wheres you plumbing career ---------------------its behind you
