If you for instance were to run a cable with no joins, directly from a CU to to a double insulated item of equipment, how many points in the wiring requiring a CPC to be connected would there be?
If no accessories are used in the circuit (remembering that an item of current using equipment is not considered to be an accessory) where would you connect a CPC?
Can't think of anywhere that I could connect the cpc to, other than a wago or the terminal of the back box ( if applicable). In the fan itself I would sleeve the cpc and terminate it in a floating wago, or crimp, or screw type terminal block.
Of course it is impossible to earth a piece of plastic, but if the Regs say I must run a cpc to it, then I must comply, whether it makes sense or not......
