Electric shower installation in Wallington
An electric shower in Wallington needs cable that can carry the unit, and a pull cord clear of the water. In a villa around Holy Trinity that cable may already run through a later extension.

What happens on the day
The unit is compared with the cable that will feed it, and a pull cord is placed where it can be reached clear of the spray. On Clifton Road and Belmont Road the bathroom often sits in a part of the house that was added later, on an installation that is already long. That section is tested on its own. A wide road board with no room for the extension is not given the shower on a lighting circuit.
- Test the cable in the additionWhere the bathroom sits in a later part of the house, that cable is tested for the unit. The look of the wall does not stand in for the test.
- Keep the pull cord out of the sprayThe cord is reachable without standing in the water. A switch where the water lands is not left as the way to isolate the shower.
- Leave the shop out of the flatA shower in a flat over a Woodcote Road shop stays in that flat. The shop is not used as a place to land the cable.

WhatsAppCan cable in an extended villa feed the shower?
Only if it tests as able to carry that unit. On Clifton Road and Belmont Road the run may already have been lengthened with the house, and that length is tested.
Where does the pull cord go?
Where it can be reached outside the spray. The switch is not left in the water, in a villa around Holy Trinity or in a flat over a shop.
Does one shower replace a wide road board?
No. If that board was never meant for the extension, the shower waits or the board is booked on its own. One shower is not a rewire.
Is Roundshaw rewired for a shower?
No. Houses rebuilt from 1998 often ask for another circuit. A shower is one circuit when the board has room for it.
Does the flat's shower use the shop?
No. The flat over a Woodcote Road shop is the dwelling. The shop is not opened so the shower cable has somewhere to go.
