At my daughter's church, while carrying out some PAT work (only failed one Henry - damaged flex) I came across an oddity. In the toilets off the church hall there are wall heaters - plugged in, so "portable". I spotted that they used 2A pluga and as I didn't have a suitable test lead with left them for later.
- The heaters are probably rated at more than 480 watts
- The sockets are tucked almost out of sight beside a WC
I've now found an adaptor with a 2A outlet.(I knew I had one somewhere)
Should I test the heaters and if safe say nothing more? Should I, if finding the heaters are 500W or more, fail them? Should I condemn the local installation as having sockets to close to water?
Thoughts pleases.
