Hi guys just wondering if someone can help me out here. I've been asked to install a metal hand dryer in a toilet block but the fused connection unit for it will fall within touching distance of the sinks.I've had a look at the regs but I'm still a bit unsure.Will the FCU need to go above the ceiling or will it be ok to go beside the hand dryer as long as the circuit is protected by an RCBO.Thanks
 
I have limited space in the toilet block and was unsure where I could mount the FCU with it being near a sink.I thought that there might be a reg as there are regs on special locations bathrooms ect and zones within bathrooms.Just wanted to check with others before I started.
Like "no sockets within 300mm of edge of sink"? Something like that?
