This question is regarding Galaxy Aqua/Designa 10.5kW Heating Element Assembly - SG06028

Diagnosis

Hi, I just want to check this is the part i need. The shower trips the electric when the high power is selected, and works fine on the other settings. If this is the part, are they relatively straight forward to replace. Many thanks.

Pretty certain it is the heating tank however see below.

 

 It may be a faulty element in the heating tank (there are two, three in most 10kw showers) you can check them with a multi meter you should have a reading of around 12>18 ohms.

If you have power to the elements and no heat it's probably the elements, no power to the elements then it's probably a micro switch.

If you don’t have a multimeter  we sell them at £10 each with a guide on how to use them for checking and testing the various parts of your shower.

Apart from helping to fix your shower, they are really useful for checking you have a power supply to appliances, for checking fuses, letting you know much power you have left in batteries

(so you know if they are dud or not)  and lots of other jobs, in short they are well  worth the £10.

Also you should check your fuse it should be 45Amp
