    Hi, my girlfriend has recently moved into a rented house with an electric shower over the bath. The pull chord is on the ceiling above the bath is that within regulations please? Thanks, Robert.

    What is the height of the ceiling measured from the floor level ?
    It may or may not be,from a regulatory perspective.
    Whether it was the most suitable position is entirely another matter.

    And does it also not depend on the regulations that were in force when it was installed?

    As long as the switch is more than 2.25 metres above floor level I would say it complies.
    (and it's a pull cord btw, not chord)!
