cooker switch

[shagg]

Hi guys, I went to give a quote for a kitchen job last night. While I was having a look I noticed that the cooker circuit had no cooker switch and we couldn't find one anywhere. Now the C/U was changed in dec to a dual RCD board by a local well known company.

I'm I right in say that they should of installed one as their responsible for that circuit

IMO you are only responsible for the work that you actually do so if all the customer wanted was a CU change then thats it. Same as if you found the lighting circuit had no earth all you can do is advise class 2 lighting only and stick a label on the CU to that effect.

Mind you they should have noticed that themselves and quoted for it.

I think it was Lenny that did a post a while back on CU changes it may be worth having a look through that post.


Hope that helps

Chris
