Triton t90sr is de the way forward

As your shower is so old your electrician might need to upgrade the fuse at the fusebox. You need a 40amp rcbo. Yours might be 32amp

There is a test button on the rcbo. This should be tested every 3 months.

Is it a straight swap of the showers or is there more to it?

That depends on your cable size and the rcbo. If cable & rcbo are good then it is a straight swap

Cable size is perfect. The 32 amp fuse is undersized for a 9kw shower. It's better to change it for a 40amp rcbo as it might trip randomly

would that be a big job for an electrician or does he just swap out the 32 for a 40?

Usually a 20/30 minute job including issuing the cert
