Discuss Electric shower query in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Spark just put in a electric shower (Triton) and hit a small problem, black brick wall behind the tiles where he wanted to install.

He said not to worry, he will just trunk it up into the ceiling (which goes into the loft). To do this, he cut a hole in the top of the shower box. He hasn't sealed the hole, there's a rough 0.5cm to 1cm gap between the hole and the trunk, and the trunk isn't flush or sealed against the tile wall.

Looks like water could very easily splash into the inside of the shower box through these gaps. Is this safe? I am going to seal it myself but want to know if this could be a serious issue or not as he left it.

Thanks for your time.
Where did he tether his horse.
