Hi all
The DIY bit is that I will be overseeing!
This is a follow up to "Electrical Regs and Business Requirements" from
17-05-16.Adam has defined the lack of RCDs on our workplace power circuits as C3. In the Electrical Safety First document, this is listed as Improvement Recommended. How do the insurance companies view this category? If it has been recommended, do they consider this mandatory?
My initial reaction was to suggest that we fit an external RCD protected socket for any outside work and prohibit "extension leads through the window" type situations.
In terms of the general use, the only items that will be regularly plugged and unplugged to present a possible danger are the kettle and the vacuum.
