Here's your shower bro

Translation: that means they figured out how to make it leak oil.

The shower heads are usually installed on none gfci circuits to avoid "nuisance" tripping.

Well then, that's just fucking horrifying. Still, unless you're an inch or so away from the head I don't think there's much danger.

I've used hundreds of these never been (seriously) shocked

Bong here, no we don't.

>starts disassembling power shower unit
>trapped water starts leaking out
Hahahaha. Exactly my experience - I fucking hate moving anything that's had water in it, as that always happens.

I've moved house no end of times, for myself and helping others, and it's always the washing machines that are the absolute worst. Stinking water coming out of the back and pouring into your boots, urgh.

>Still, unless you're an inch or so away from the head I don't think there's much danger.
Having been electrocuted in a shower I must disagree.

Those showers are totally safe. The people that think they can kill you don't know how electricity works.

It's about the wiring job, not the showers themselves.

Why is this faggot talking like he had a stroke

>what a 'barebones' arch installation looks like

They're safe in the sense you've accounted for, i.e., the way in which the shower should operate. There are scenarios where one will become entangled and melt. Too many dangers. Time to get wires out of the shower.

this and .

which will be one outcome.
> wires short, fuses blow.
> power shorts internally, by water or other mean, fuses blow
> power shorts to pipework, fuses blow.

as that other user said, water does not magically conduct through disconnected droplets of water.

thats what you get for taking your mums magic wand into the shower you stupid fuck.

Those showers are fail safe, if something goes wrong the breaker pops before electricity can reach you.

How come there are no massive deaths when using the shower then? South Americans are not smart people to use something safely if it requires thinking

Honestly, I don't know what the photo was about or anything in this thread. I slapped my way hard on the scroll wheel and squeezed in the middle.

>Those showers are fail safe

They are literally just mains electricity through a heating element.
No clever safety features whatsoever.
They don't even have wires long enough to reach the switch, so you end up with nothing more than a piece of duck-tape to isolate you from the live wire above your head.

>if something goes wrong the breaker pops before electricity can reach you.

Not in most homes/hotels in the 3rd world where they are used.

>30A 600V
.01A is lethal already
58V is lethal already

Even the shittiest house with an electric shower in South America has an RCD. Worst that will happen is lights go out.
Doesn't make them comfortable though, they love to zap you. I've had to replace these crap showers for tankless heaters in at least 2 rented houses.

In the 3rd world people die all the time from all sorts of things.
Electrocution being one of the many ways they die.
Nobody cares is the answer.

>Even the shittiest house with an electric shower in South America has an RCD.

Bollocks.
Shit costs money and people are stupid.

>Not in most homes/hotels in the 3rd world where they are used.
Ok, show how many people have died in South America because of those.

They probably don't keep statistics because again: nobody cares about fried non-whites.

They don't keep statistics because there are none to keep. Nobody dies because of those showers.

electricity can't go down retards

it depends on the rotation of the earth STUPID

I love this guy's videos.

Down is a direction relative to the center of the earth you cock sniff. Nothing to do with gravity, everything to do with charge. Protons, being positively charged, rise. Electrons, being negatively charged, fall. Now go touch the live wire of your power point, the one the protons flow out of. Now touch the neutral, the one the electrons come out of. You'll either die or learn a lesson about how electricity works, I'm happy with either outcome.

nah you're just stupid

So it's safe as long as you're on the southern hemisphere?

The word you were looking for is latino. Latinx is not a word.

What?

How the hell do you 3rd worlders think centralized heating works?
We have unlimited hot water all the time.

Hey hot water is hot water

Now that's what I call a nice, energizing shower.

You cumskins kill me.

Literally no one has one here you faggot.

You take your shower head with you when moving?

No? I do unscrew it every few months or so and plop it in a jug with some descaling solution, though.

Literally a designated sopa de macaco maker

Latino is the collective name for latino people, amerimutt. Take your SJW bullshit and shove it up your ass.

sounds like a Pajeet got taught English by a Scotsmen

Eat shit Chicano scum

It looks like this from the inside. The power doesn't reach even the outside of the shower head, because water has a high resistance, and current doesn't go through a stream of droplets.

unuronically kill yourself. Binary genders are fucking hardcoded into the language you faggot. There are masculine and feminine words; there are no tranny words.

Bigclive begs to differ Mohamed

My boiler is filled with 500 liters of 65°c water. no wonder you use these shower heads if you believe that's how it works in the civilised world lad.

>short answer
heh

Can anyone provide a scenario as to how one of these would kill you? (apart from the wires falling off and into the water you're standing in?)

yes they do retard

that's unironically safe. Looks scary tho.
just werks, also it's safer than gas.

> 30A 600V
wait, why? You don't need that much power to heat a shower.

Underrated post

>.01A is lethal already
>58V is lethal already
what a fucking brainlet. If you understood the basics of electricity, you would know that even thousands of volts can't hurt you if there isn't enough current.

that's probably just the rating for the switch
also I don't see why you wouldn't you need much power for heating water on the fly.

Heavy Czech accent, I think he learned english in Australia.

That's the rating on the conduit, it doesn't necessarily mean that many volts/amps are actually there.
Hell, 220V rated element on 600V would be one hell of a shitshow.

Droplets from a shower can't form a current, that makes these shower heads relatively safe. But of course you can shock yourself with these disgusting instalations some of the pictures here show.

Based Brazilian shower. There are more death by gas heating showers in our history than from this type of showerhead

>> Cumskins need to wait hours for their tank to heat up
what is insulation

even if you don't ground it, it's safe.

Why would you need to heat your shower head?

holy shit what sort of retard would make this

As safe as dropping a hairdryer into the shower
It's made for poor Brazilians who can't afford anything else

>when you're so poor you can't afford common sense

Piss on an electric fence and see what happens

a brazilian is going to shower in it?
