Amendment 3

[Hawk]

Am I correct in saying that plastic consumer units can be used in commercial premises?

 

[Megavolt]

Yes but why you would is beyond me.

 

[Hawk]

Would it not be useful in a TT system?

 

[Octopus]

And to use up cheap stock from the wholesalers!

 

[Hawk]

Hahaha

 

[Hawk]

Why does it not apply to commercial premises?

 

[Adam W]

Yes but why you would is beyond me.

Why would you want a consumer unit which will rust?

 

[Leesparkykent]

Why does it not apply to commercial premises?

Because 421.1.201 is a complete joke and ill thought out at the best.

 

[Octopus]

Why does it not apply to commercial premises?

Ask the LFB/IET et all

A bizarre situation if you ask me!

 

[Hawk]

I mean if they're concerned about plastic consumer units catching fire surely it doesn't matter what premises it's in. Seems a load of p##s to me!

 

[Leesparkykent]

Yeah I think its a combination of Electrical Trainee's and poorly manufactured tat.

 

[Megavolt]

And to use up cheap stock from the wholesalers!

No thanks. Profer metal clad every time.

 

[Megavolt]

Why would you want a consumer unit which will rust?

Because there miles better

 

[Octopus]

Yeah I think its poorly manufactured tat.

Which will still burn inside a metal CU!

 

[Adam W]

Because there miles better

No they're not.
