I have a job like this coming up next week and now I know how not to do it so found it helpful. And yes I will be doing a zs and an IR test. And the copper will come in from the back. And I will also test the RCD as it is a split board.

Would of preferred the copper pipe to push in by back entry, looks like a council job with the pipe on show

[streetlewis]

I would want that copper pipe showing in my bath room

Why did you test it on one pipe? What about homes with 2 pipes (Hot & cold)?

[jjjones]

would this work in a bungalow with good water pressure

Hi Sir, Great video tutorial. I installed this same shower unit but when i turn it off, water is still coming out of the shower head. Any help pls?

[iputyouinmyoveni]

Mine doesn’t have any sort of pipe at the bottom, and the pressure of the water isn’t strong at all?

Can this shower work in Africa 240w power

[dannyarcher]

Omg what is that sparky doing to the copper plumbing - using Yorkshire solder as well 🤦🏻

[jjjones]

dont you have to turn off the electric at the mains when you do this ?

Am I the only one thinking that this video is a good example of bad practices. Firstly, the rating of the cable. Although the shower capacity was not mentioned, 6mm cable for any electric shower should just be a no no. Secondly, force cooling the pipe weld. I mean this must not be done under any circumstances. Common on, how long does it take to cool naturally? Not sure this video is one to recommend. Quick job, bad practices

The point on these videos shouldnt be look how easy this job is it should be if your gonna mess with 6mm shower cable can you prove that cable is dead before and after refit of shower and i dont mean wave a voltage pen over it, and if the answer no then then you shouldnt be touching the job full stop

6mm calbe is too small for a 40amp breaker.

Ok, I've been watching your videos on installing everything, but there's a saying "Jack of All, Master of None". Kitchen fitter, chippie, plumber and now electrician! There seems to be no end to your talents! For an 8.5KW shower the recommended cable size should be 10mm and be protected by an 40A 30Ma RCBO. I didn't see any local double pole 40A isolation switch, nor any local water shut off valve! It's fine being the jack of all, but messing with electrics can kill! I presume you'll also fit gas appliances.. You're just fantastic and probably cheap too. Building Regs, Part P, City & Guilds, who needs any of that? Just watch YouTube channels like yours, there's no longer any need for qualified tradesmen anymore. Yours, Paul McGuinness

6mm for 8.5kw bet that will burn out why not 10mm

And where's your Zs testing nd is the showr rcd protected

[rfmlets]

Why make a bend in the pipe? You could have put the 15mm pipe straight into the back of the shower.

This guy has other great videos. But, I am not so impressed with this video of his, as he didn't mention the cable from the MCB will terminate on the RCD and then to the Electric Shower. The RCD of the RCD will depend on the Shower Rating.
