Shower switch not pull cord type??

[chris_k]

Afternoon all.

Just been to price another shower, in a conservatory room. Problem is there is no available flat ceiling to mount an isolation switch. Mounting on conservatory pitched roof spar isnt really possible and will look a bit gash.

I was thinking cooker switch with neon but doesnt the switch need to have a mechanical indicator?

Can anyone recommend a soloution.

Thanks

Chris

Surely only a pullcord requires the mechanical indicator, a 45A switch will by default have mechanical on/off.

45A cooker switch with neon is all you need

however if its a big shower and you are using 10mm t&e make so you have lots of 10p's for the swear box

Alternatively, ensure the cables are stirpped back correctly and preformed for connection, where practical.

(You may still need the swear box, though)

all double pole switches, up to 32A is 1G and they come with a load of stickers, one of which is 'shower'.

i did one saturday with 6mm cable and it went in fine.

Why not use a 45A switch that fits a 2 gang box gives you a bit more room

Sod squeezing 6mm or bigger into a 1 gang box! There isn't any swear box big enough to hold that many 10p's!

2 Gang all the way - even if some people think its ugly
