Here is a FREE Hi-Fi sonic upgrade.
Try this and it should be FREE to most of you (UK). If you do not already have a 100Amp Incommer Main Fuse supplied by your Electricity Supplier, but have one of 60Amp or 80Amp then have it upgraded to the 100Amp.
Just tell them you intend to fit an 11 Kilowatt power shower, and could they please change the Incommer Mains fuse to 100Amps. The Electricity Supplier will usually do this for FREE.
Generally most dwellings over 15years old will NOT have the 100Amp fuse, but one of lower Value, possibly 80Amp or 60Amp. Dwellings built earlier than 1965 generally have 60Amp Incommer fuses fitted. If it is not 100Amps then get it changed - usually for FREE in the UK. What are you waiting for? IT IS USUALLY FREE! - good luck! ( if you get the chance, then do polish the 100A fuse and fuse-holder)
NB. If you get this work done DO INSIST that the Meter "Tail" cables, to and from the Meter, are 25mm2 cable. 16mm2 or lower WILL NOT DO. If installed correctly, people have reported an equivalent upgrade of a FlatCap (£500?). Upgrading from a 60Amp fuse to 100Amp fuse being the most marked.
Have fun
Best regards
