[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 328344, member: 1607"] Welcome to the forum, It is most unlikely to be a problem with any of the fuses, assuming they are the correct rating for the shower they are probably working correctly and removing the power due to a fault somewhere on the circuit or in the shower. From the information you have given, so far it reads that you have done no electrical testing on any parts of the circuit or shower unit? Just trial and error continual replacement of the PRD. Do you have access to any correct electrical test meters? Have you tested your actual water pressure with the shower disconnected? With your initial problem from a couple of months ago did you actually establish a cause of the original PRD operation? of just replace the PRD to clear the symptom. How old is the shower, was it installed by yourself or by a competent trades person? do you have any electrical certificates for the original shower installation giving the original cable test readings? Do you know if it is a Fuse/MCB or and RCD that tripped at the fuse box? Doc H. [/QUOTE]
