Cable calculations depend on a number of items. Issues like the length of the cable run, installation method, ambient temperatures and if the cable runs thru thermal material (loft inslation, eg).

Let us know about these and you'll get more accurate guidance.
 
It's probably best to use 10mm in any event in case the shower gets replaced for a larger one at a later date.
