Hi there, im new here and quite new to DIY to be honest!
My prob is- I had a new 9.5kw electric shower fitted about a year ago to replace an existing 8kw? one. the thing is at the time it had reccomended that I use a 45amp fuse, however I couldnt get one of these anywhere. I managed to find a store quite local who advised that the existing 30amp would be fine.
Now the shower's not working (well the power cord light doesnt go on and water doesn't heat up).
Is this just likely to be the fuse thats gone? And if so what amp should I replace it with? Also are there any web-sites that supply these as Ive tried to locate a supplier again with no luck!
Thanks for any advice!!
