First impression, without thinking too long about it...
C2 for the single insulated tails, seems to apply to other henley blocks too
Another C1 if it's possible to actually touch that copper, otherwise C2
(IMHO quicker to fix the exposed copper tail than code it if client is willing.)

As above would take 5 minutes to re-terminate , if the job allows for reactive remedies
I always try and get permission to fix small quick things. Rarely is this refused!
My pet hate is seeing "Missing 2 Colours sticker" or "Missing RCD Test Label" on a report, I want to scream "just slap one on!"

Thanks mate
Get this a lot mate with stickers etc, due to this being in full production it’s a bit harder to just shut stuff down so arranged with clients for a sat morning shut down quick fix

As always guys iam an apprentice and all the help you guys give me is really appreciated, great site
Bit concerning the poor IP ratings on the Henley blocks.
Yeah, think I’d want to see from directly above to be sure, they sometimes have tunnels and another hole.
Looking at the henley block in the foreground of the picture is the bottom corner damaged or has it become brittle due to the material aging
They are service terminal blocks?
Oooh picky!

They aren't even made by Henley.
OP
Well that’s what I’ve always bn told they are
It's like the old Hoover thing.
It is a brand name as @DPG says with Hoover. In technical reports I like to see correct terminology and they are service terminal/connector blocks.
I agree really, it's just quicker to type Henley in the
ISCO is shorter.

Yes, it would give some measure of user protection but probably not in the case of a fire.
