Also not an electrician, but a 40a breaker for an on demand electric water heater seems reasonable
Same in Guatemala.
The fuse that was used obviously is incorrect. Pull out that bolt, and install a proper .22 LR wrapped in tin-foil. Old electricians trick, to make it both audible and visually apparent as to which circuit is the issue when looking at the panel.
Yeah, as they should. Not one of somebody's better ideas.
That is how I would do it if I had no way to check and was given those extensive directions. It’s a heating element after all so it probably doesn’t matter which way you connect the black, white, red and blue.View attachment 8552359

40 amp shower has the black wire connection
I would think the black wire connects to the blue on the shower head
The red connects to the white
The instructions are on the box
Additionally, the landlord had removed the previous shower head wires denying me the previous connections as a guide for the new unit
Looks like the picture/instructions shows a double pole breaker being used and you have a single pole. Although the connection point in the shower looks to be a 220 configuration. You need a voltage meter to check at the connection point to see what voltage is there. If it's 220 you need to find where the red wire in the connection point is connected in the breaker box. Hopefully it is not connected to one of those 20 amp breakers.View attachment 8552359
