What fuse should it have on it?

In the fuse box should the shower have a 45 amp fuse because at the minute i have a 32 amp fuse and im having alot of trouble with it like firstly it kept cutting out i got an electrician to look at it he stopped that, and when it comes on there is smoke coming from behind the box on the wall, the front has been lifted off and the wirse on the right hand side as you look at it are burnt away.

A 9.5 kw shower should have a 45 amp breaker(fuse) which is protected by a RCD.

Is it the shower unit that is burning out or the distribution board (fuse box).
