Does anyone know if a shower pull cord is needed for a digitally controlled mixer shower controller ? My son in law is fitting such a device where the temperature control is done by a Mira digitally controlled box outside the shower area powered off a12v mains power supply, which logic says can just be plugged into the nearest 13A socket - all this side of the fitment is outside the bathroom area.
I would have preferred such a configuration so that an emergency switch off is available in the shower area, but Mira's instructions are all confused as they have just pulled paragraphs from those for an ordinary electric shower and include a requirement to wire to a heavy duty supply from the consumer unit and would consequently include such a switch.
S.I.L is taking the easiest approach of just using a convenient 13A socket for the controller PSU, which is probably correct but the lack of a local emergency off switch did concern me.
Thanks Rob
