Have a look at an electrical installation certificate.

Haven't got one, you tell me, you're the electrician. There is no
reason
to need anything other than access to earth, live, neutral, see what
breakers are there or fit one, and check the amperage is sufficient.

I have already told you. You need info from the cutout. The CU info
means
**** all to your question


You're not telling me anything. In his CU the sparky would see the
amperage available to the house, the type of breakers in use, and have
access to live, neutral, and earth. He needs nothing more to fit a
shower.


ARW, if you know differently, please have the good manners to tell us
specifically where we are wrong, rather than resorting to abuse and
bland statements like "see the certificate" and "see the cutout" which
don't of themselves explain your reasoning if we've never seen a
certificate or cutout. If you can't be bothered to explain, tell us and
we'll ask someone who can.

And tell us the specific points that you are making rather than quoting
a URL to a long document which has the info embedded somewhere with it.

As a matter of principle. I would never be so unhelpful and ill-mannered
as to say (effectively) "you're wrong but I can't be bothered to explain
where/why you are wrong - you need to consult [documentation that you
have never seen]".


While in part I might agree with you, ToughGuy is a troll and will
typically bait people into never ending arguments. I'm not sure if he
should be treated the same as other posters, though I must admit in this
case I would be intrigued at Adam's response. Sometimes responding to
bait we can find ourselves cornered into submission.
