Yes I agree with esetest, re the question on shower Kw 6mm cable may not be big enough.
I think the issue with junction boxes and the A rating is more to do with the size of the terminals inside and the available space in the box to bend and position 10mm/6mm cable.
When you say the switch jammed would that mean that perhaps a piece of metal inside has come away and leading to the shorting causing the burnout. I dont see how just being on would cause an issue unless the cable is the wrong size for the shower. Mine is 10mm for a 9Kw shower and also no part of the cable in the attic lays under insulation.
