Default Zones in a wet room

I have just been trying to work out the (electrical) zones for our
wet room and I'm finding it a bit difficult.

The fundamental difficulty is that I can't really see how one decides
(for Zone 2) what is "... beyond zones 0&1, extends 60cm horizontally
and ..." as there is no well defined 'edge' of the shower. This
really carries on from "Zone 0 - The interior of the bath or shower",
the shower doesn't have an 'interior', there isn't even a shower
curtain.

Is there some sort of conventional 'size of a shower' which is a
defined horizontal distance from the shower head?


The regs provide a different rule for showers without a tray: Zone 0 is
10 cm up and 1.2m out from a fixed shower head. Zone 1 same radius with
height as for other showers. See eg
