I wonder if there's a black market for half a cable of old colour red & black twin & earth like that in my shed?

I prefer brown, black, grey, but must admit x years ago got rid of some 2" asbestos tape which can't use in this country any more

Anything in a bathroom is 'special location' If you are not Part P registered and do not inform the 'building Regs' you are breaking the law.
Any accident and you have done manslaughter.

Apart from that 8.5kw = approx 34 amps. max for 6mm is 32 amps so you need 10mm.

I'm a qualified sparks and i wont do electric showers anymore.The bits and peices you need to make a safe circuit plus the labour invariably cost considerably more than the rubbish electric showers people go and buy from Wickes that pack up within a couple of years (especially in hard water areas)

If you can get a proper shower fitted off the hw system thats your best bet.
