Fittinga more powerful shower to the existing wiring.

If yourexisting shower was installed with 6mm wiring (as it should have been) thenfitting another shower (even up to one of the 10kw units) to the existing wiringshould be no problem, depending on the length of the run off cable and how thecable is installed.

Here isa table that allows you to work out what you can do with the existing wiring,make sure you fill it in accurately as this can make a large difference to theeventual calculation.

You mayalso have to change the fuse

Up to9.5kw 40 Amp Fuse

Up to10.5kw 45 Amp Fuse

If youare even in the slightest unsure about any of the above then please contact anelectrician.
