Question
spunko
My old shower, before it was replaced, had one of those weird switches (similar to a light switch but with a little red light on it) that I think you used to have to turn ON before you used the old electric shower. I never used it, because I had the shower/bathroom refitted as soon as I moved in (fucking filthy and 'orrible it was...). What are they used for? It has a sticker saying 'Shower' on it.
My current shower definitely doesn't it because it's been off for years.
I want to get rid of the horrible old socket/switch (cap it off), because it's ugly, but I don't know if it's worth leaving it up. The fusebox has a dedicated switch for "SHOWER" which as far as I can tell only powers this disused switch.
Does it make sense to cap it off and is there a way to tell if it's being used by something else other than the previous shower still? (Besides manual testing)
Cant be bothered to get an electrician in who'll charge me half a day.
