thanks this doesn’t surprise me at all. The bathroom is a shocker generally, built for HMO purpose. Once I have funds to build first floor extension, the bathroom is going above the kitchen, so really don’t want to shell out major cost to fix a legacy problem. combi boiler sited in bathroom too, another cock up really..
In the picture it looks like your supply wiring is smaller diameter than the 'internal' wiring of the shower. Possibly your wiring is under sized for the shower ampage. Seems like the breaker should have been operating too, maybe borderline but you would have hoped the breaker would trip with damage like that to the cable.
