A like for like replacement covers the safe isolation of the bathroom circuit, removal of your old shower unit, mounting the new unit on existing fixing and pipe positions, reconnecting the wiring, and functional testing to verify safe operation. ### Can I replace my electric shower with a more powerful model? You can upgrade to a higher kilowatt rating if your existing electrical cable and circuit breaker can support the increased current. We inspect the cable cross section and consumer unit ratings to determine whether your wiring can take the higher load without running a new cable. ### Do I need a new consumer unit to install an electric shower? A new consumer unit is only required if your existing board lacks residual current device protection, lacks available circuit capacity, or cannot handle the electrical load demanded by an electric shower. We inspect the board before undertaking any work. ### Is an electric shower installation notifiable under building regulations? Installing a brand new circuit in a bathroom is notifiable work. MX2 Electrical is NAPIT registered, meaning we handle the building control notification and issue the required electrical installation certificate upon completion. Straightforward like for like swaps on existing circuits generally do not require building control notification. ### Do you supply the electric shower or do I purchase it? We can fit a customer-purchased unit provided it matches the plumbing layout and electrical circuit capacity of your bathroom. Alternatively, we can provide a suitable shower model as part of the booking. ## Other services in Wareham - [Electrician in Wareham](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/electrician-wareham): Domestic, commercial and specialist electrical repairs, testing and planned installations across Wareham, Northport, Sandford and BH20. - [Electric shower installation (all areas)](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/services/electric-shower-installation): Electric shower fitting and replacement from MX2 Electrical in Poole and Dorset.
