Sockets Lighting guidance

What electrical work does an electric shower need?

Electric showers are high-load appliances, so product choice and the existing electrical supply need to be considered together.
By Truvo Electrical Solutions

A higher-kilowatt replacement is not automatically suitable for an existing circuit. The cable, route, protective device, isolation and supply capacity all influence the design.

What to consider

For a new shower, access between the consumer unit and bathroom can be a major part of the work. Discuss floors, ceilings, boxing and making good before quotation.

Warning signs and safe next steps

Bathroom electrical work needs appropriate design, installation and testing. Do not open the shower or electrical covers to gather photographs.

What helps Truvo assess the job?

Provide a clear description of the problem or planned work, the Sheffield postcode, access details and safe photographs of finished equipment only. Never remove a screwed cover or expose electrical parts for a photograph.

From initial advice to a quotation

An online enquiry can establish the likely scope, but a formal quotation follows review of the property details and any necessary inspection or testing. Every installation is different, so final design and price must reflect the actual conditions.
