    Why can you not use TN-C-S in special locations that are outdoors?

    Looking in BS7671 at Part 7, Special Locations, in those involving circuits that are typically run outdoors, TN-C-S is specifically excluded in preference of TN-S or TT. So why is TN-C-S specifically excluded? I know the ESQCR is quoted, but want to understand why the ESQCR makes this...

    Special location or not?

    I have existing outside power going to my shed. If I extend the lighting circuit to have a bulk head on the outside of the shed would this come under a special location? The wiring would come straight from the inside of the shed to the back of the bulk head on the outside with no exposed wires...

    special location?

    Is a toilet a special location? There is only the toilet in there no basin no other source of water other than the toilet. I'm rewiring the house and it seemed a bit strange to have a switch in the toilet for the light and the extractor fan ( which has an isolator rocker switch on the ceiling)...

    Special locations

    I have to install over basin water heaters in 2 bathrooms as there is no domestic hot water, there is rcd protection in the bathrooms so is it ok to fit an un-switched fused spur in zone 2 as long as the manufacturer permits the plate to be used in this area? Any help would be appreciated thanks.

    Notifiable Work

    Hi Guys, It has been my belief that all notifiable work, even if just a new spurred socket in a Kitchen had to have a Full Electrical Installation cert. During a telephone conversation today it was implied that something like this could still be done on a Minor Works Cert and still be...
