If you isolated the shower at the isolation switch it wouldn't trip anything. The switch is a double pole. It cuts the live and the neutral. If you were to of isolated it at the consumer unit and touched the live with the CPC (earth) it wouldn't of tripped either. Simply because the breaker is switched off. But if it was protected by an RCD touching the neutral with the CPC/earth it would of tripped the RCD.

Came here from BigClive! Not sure I'd stake my life on the opinion of a non-contact voltage sensor, especially in a wet place with metal frames around it. Those buggers aren't fail safe and when they don't light up, it means either the tester is faulty or the power is off. Could be either.... :-( Those horrible cheap water heaters used to have plates in them to limit the flow... that's how they controlled the output temperature of the water. They used to get full of crap, then they wouldn't adjust properly, just red hot or freezing cold. Not sure if that's the issue here. but cleaning and descaling them, as I used to do, could save a lot of money, and space in the landfill if that's still what happens. I suppose they didn't improve the design, as it generates more sales...?

You are meant to check polarity before and after.....and obviously prove its dead before you lick it. So if there are any newborn plumbers watching....please do it right. There are a lot of amps running through a shower and if there is no MCB or rcd it's fried plumber for tea. This guy is really experienced and has used his volt pen and knowledge.

If it's a communal drain I'm pretty sure if 2 or more households have a problem seven trent will come out to clear it. I try to stick to gas and electrics. Leave the poo to the plumbers 🤗. Thanks DrPipe. 👍
