[QUOTE="gamer1, post: 988744, member: 60892"] When using the Wedi system for a shower renovation involving an electric shower, it's essential to prioritize safety and follow proper installation procedures. Here are some considerations and advice: Cable Routing Through Wedi Board: Yes, you can run the electric cable through the Wedi board, but it should be done carefully to ensure safety. It's a good practice to create a protective conduit or channel within the Wedi board to contain the cable securely. This helps prevent potential damage to the cable and reduces any risk. Clearance Around Cable: While there may not be specific clearance requirements for the cable, it's crucial to ensure that the cable is not pinched, squeezed, or damaged during installation. Providing some space around the cable within the Wedi board is advisable. Fire Safety: To minimize any fire risk, consider using fire-resistant materials around the cable penetration points. Additionally, consult local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance with safety standards. Fire-resistant gaiters or collars may be suitable, depending on your local regulations. Documentation and Training: For specific guidance on using the Wedi system with an electric shower, it's best to refer to the official Wedi documentation or reach out to their customer support. They may have installation guides, videos, or resources tailored to various scenarios. Professional Installation: If you are unsure about any aspect of the installation, especially when dealing with electrical components, consider hiring a professional electrician or a contractor with experience in Wedi system installations. They can ensure the project is completed safely and in compliance with local regulations. [/QUOTE]
