only accessible by use of a tool,

I wouldn't trust a plumber to put a plaster on a cut, anyone can install a cold feed to a shower and remove earth clamps without any consideration to the householder haha

It would only need to be IP2X.

How's that for teaching you how to suck eggs Spin!

I know your just having some fun with spinlondon, however joking aside, whats required and what is good practice are 2 different things fella, the bathroom regs are not amusing IMO, how about removing all zones and having low voltage only in a bathroom, zone 1 and 2 etc is total rollocks, and lets include installing remote low voltage shower switches only, about time 230 volt showers were banned IMO, several shower manufacturers are sponsors or supporters to the IEE im sure. :earmuffs:

Hence why if you look at one of my earlier posts, you will see that I said:

Personally however, if I was installing a spur in a bath or shower room, it would be IP66 wherever it was sighted.

okay sorry

let's all push for elv showers. 24Volt. at 10kW that will be 417Amps. so 240mm cable should just about suffice.

No tel a 230 volt shower not in the bath but the switches remote you donut, get a grip man

Done that already Murdoch. As the pump has a plug that's what got me started on this. I was sure that it coundnt be connected to a socket in a bathroom. I am going to meet with the plumber on Wednesday and see if he can install pump in the
Loft above. It's not looking good as he didn't even know there is another electrical box which I assume is the steam generator. He bought it all, so you would think he would know what he was installing!

What kind of shower pump has a plug on it? Get the plumber to change the pump?
