An electric water heater in a hot tank is called an immersion heater and many of those run at 3 kW with a thermostat to control the max temperature.
Power showers use a type of water heater that heats the water at the point where it is used, without a tank. They run at 6-8 kW and are also controlled by a thermostat.
