my hotpoint aquarius shower has blown the fuse twice but can't see any obvious reason for this. wonder if the fuse is on the borderline for this job.

Watts divided by Voltage = Amps

You don't mention either Watts or Volts so nobody can answer you accurately.

If your shower has always been popping the breaker then the breaker MAY be under rated but the shower is more likely to be faulty in some way particularly if the breaker tripping is a recent happening. A certificated specialist is probably your safest route.

Your question, by the way, is in the category Electric Shavers.
