Electric heated "suicide" shower PART 1 - teardown & calculations

Ғылым және технология

This is the first part of my video about the famous electric heated shower head, nicknamed a "suicide shower", produced by Lorenzetti and other makers. It looks quite dangerous, but it's widely used in Latin America and I don't hear about too many electric shock deaths caused by it. I take a look inside, explain how does it work and do some calculations regarding heating water up and tank-less heaters.

    It is so common here in Brazil and I have never heard of any case of death by electric shower head. Mine is 7800W and uses 10mm thick wiring with its own circuit breaker. Electricity here is much much cheaper than natural gas because most of our electricity energy is from water turbines, renewable and abundant

    You can find this in almost every home here in Brazil. The scariest part is that most electricians leave the ground wire disconnected/uninstalled either to save on wiring costs or because they're completely unaware of the purpose of that green wire. The shower works ok with only two wires, that's what they think unfortunately.

    Here in Australia, the water temps can be even more extreme. In hot summer months, when you turn on the tap initially, the water coming out of the cold water tap can actually be *hotter than the hot water tap* - hot water is regulated to 60c because this is the minimum temperature to kill bacteria but it's not hot enough to scold you. The initial water out of the cold water tap will have been heated in the house piping to beyond 60c.

(it is Inverno actually) is winter - Verão is summer - Desliga is "Turn Off" - I'm laughing my ass off with the term suicide shower :) it is safe, I've been using all my life. - We plan our houses with an thick electric wire (4mm² as marked) and connect to mains voltage, without a wall connector, it is perfectly safe.

I used a ritual to avoid electrocution: 1)start water flowing 2)switch on outlet and shower head. 3) Enjoy shower not touching any metal plumbing fixtures. 4) exit shower and turn off outlet switch 5) secure water supply. then switch off shower head switch. I used it for 2 years without problem....it made the water nice and warm. Thanks for the video....

    Some houses do, my only has ground for the shower, wich by the way is exactly this one, the rest of the house is not grounded at all, wall sockets only have 2 pins, and when we have an 3 pin connector we use these chinese adapters. This is mostly because the wiring is quite old, and it is pretty expensive to ground the house, replace wall sockets, etc. If the "grounding" can be done at all. Though like he said, I never heard of someone that died from electric shock on a shower, but I would definitely be happier if gas heating was cheaper. Btw you tought me electronics, thanks!

    The vantages: In the most part of the Brazil the cold winter never get 5 degrees water. In my place (center of the country) the water comes at +20°. There's no cold water losses when you start the shower. If you have 5 people to get a shower in sequence it's not a problem. The houses usually have 50A connection and it is not more expensive.

    I'd imagine with a lowish flow rate and not too cold winters it might be alright (safety aside) but the power does seem low. My electric non-suicide shower is 9.5kw and is a pretty standard thing to have here in the UK. The shower head doesn't need all that much water flow to give you a proper shower and its nice and hot through winter.... but it has a properly isolated element! :)

    As always great review. Waiting for part two. Your calculator seems to be be a very old one from the 80s .I too had one. They used a lot of batteries. Ultimately shifted to the low power LCD version in a couple of years.

    Nice! Really good video :). Something I'm not sure about. You say that the ground takes all of the leakage current. But if the tub drain is also connected to ground, isn't it just a parrarel connection? I don't understand how it can remove the leakage current. When you calculate current in parallel circuits it is just a higher total current draw the more circuits you put in parallel.

    Before watching part 2: My impression was, that the water tube is pretty narrow, so maybe it is only 100 ml/s. I'm curious to see your findings. A 2nd remark is about the water in summer/winter. My impression is, that the water temperature does not depend that much on the season, because it is coming from the ground, where it is pretty isolated, most of the time. I would estimate that it is about 7°C in winter and 12°C in summer, but that's just guessing and your infrastructure might vary. Considering that, it might even vary more in South America, think Copa Cabana, maybe water tanks on the roofs? At least we can conclude, that a difference of 6,5°C is something remarkable, so that people are attracted to use this device, in absence of alternatives. Of course in South-SA, it is cold enough to get visits from penguins and in the mountains of Chile etc., it will be pretty cold, too. However, I don't think I would like to take such a shower - the shower arm might fall to the ground, break, and say good bye to your life.

    Ten výkon bude ešte menší, lebo pri zvýšení teploty sa zvyšuje aj odpor. Takže tie merania pri izbovej teplote nie sú veľmi presné. No každopádne tie výpočty výkonu potrebného na zohriatie vody mi nesedia, však prietokové ohrievače sa u nás bežne používajú v umývadlách a majú okolo 3kW a voda je aj tak horúca... Alebo je tam nižší tlak ako v sprche?

    We regulate flow to adjust the temperature. Used alot in Africa coz it's cheap and one only heats the water being used...no storage issues. Electrocution is unheard of, but fires were common (nowadays rare) if left on and the switch mechanism fail in the on position and there's no water flowing. Tingling sensation on touching tap/gate valve if piping is metallic and one is all wet, but nowadays with ppr and pvc being widespread, even this is rare. So, all in all, it suits those who want to save some cash.

    We used these in Nicaragua. They were great for hot showers since hot water wasn't a thing for the most part there. The one that was in my bathroom, I think may have been faulty because if you put your hand in the stream close to the showerhead, you could get a nice little shock. Sort of like when you put your tongue on a battery type of shock. I told the lady I was renting from and she said "Oh! It's not supposed to do that!". lol

    a hybrid 60kw three phase boiler is the best type of heater. It heats during night time and keeps warm during the day (it uses 200w to do it, not always) and if you run out the 60kw heater will keep your water warm. Or there is a button to quickly replenish the supply in the boiler

    Language is not spanish, it's portuguese. I don't think it's a suicide device. This electric shower is usual in Brazil. You need to use a 30 Ampére breaker and turn on w/ the flat switch in the first 10 seconds (for fill the chamber with water). Since the chamber is filled with water, it's not dangerous to turn on. If you follow correctly all instructions manual, there's no danger.

    Actually is 5kW/h, 10 minutes in the high temperature will use around 0,8 kW, each kW here cost around $ 0,15 and is actually expensive these days because we're facing a drought, our electricity is main hydropower, so to keep all running need to activate that thermoelectric plants, when it's all good with hydroelectric plants on 100% each kW costs around $ 0,10, so it's a win-win situation, cheap to buy, cheap to install and cheap to use, and it is safe!

    about wiring, in Brasil, most of the country have consumer wiring with the following characteristics: *60 Hz *actual 120V rms phase to ground voltage, that is nominally 127V rms, and is know by the general public as '110v' *single phase/plit phase wiring with tn-c-s protective multiple earthing/multi-grounded neutral grounding; or in other words, each house receives three wires, two live wires, each at 120Vrms/60Hz and in reverse polarity (180º apart) and a combined neutral and earth, which is connected to an local earthing rod at the entrance of the house, and from then on is distributed as a separate neutral and a ground wire. *generally only new homes have earthed sockets and connections, most old wiring and retrofits skip the installation of ground wires to each socket. *general lighting uses one phase and one neutral wire with a 15A breaker and no GFIs, normally half of the house is in one 15A circuit from one phase, and the other half with other 15A circuit from the other phase wire. *high power appliances use each a separate 30A circuit, with two phase wires (thus giving a phase to phase voltage of 240V, publicly know as '220V'), generally each shower head has its own 30A circuit, with breakers in both phases and no GFCIs and the typical absent ground wiring, but sometimes separate 220v30A circuits are found for microwave ovens, washing machines and tings like that.
