Cable to an electric shower

[Scott_D]

A friend has asked if it is safe/allowed to run a surface mounted cable to an electric shower?

It's happened at his grandparents house down south and he is a bit worried

Said its surface mounted but in a conduit

Sounds rough but is it ok?

Yes ok normally done on social services grant jobs

I guess it doesn't matter if the outer coating gets wet

Trunking normally is ip 45 rated so other than sealing to shower it should be fine

Mira shower ?

Bet it’s a Triton. As Shaun says, see it a lot on social housing
