Shortly, I will have to remove the power shower unit from the bathroom
wall. Though I can remove the fuse that feeds it, what do I have to do
with the 3 cores coming out of the wall to make it safe?

Switch off the CU and remove the cover. Disconnect the cable completely.
You can tape up the ends and leave inside the CU in case it's needed later.

Do something similar at the other end if you can - you just never know.

I am hoping that I can put back the same power shower pump if I can
repair it, but it might well be off the tiled wall for some time.

John's idea sounds good, further down. By the way, the shower is tapped
off the upstairs ring to a fuse and isolating switch in the airing
cupboard before going under the bathroom floor and up the wall behind
the plaster and tiles.

Ah - it's a pump. Same applies, though - disconnect the cable totally at
the isolating switch.
