low power 110v~240v device on a construction site

[Robboy]

PoE details:
Input: AC 100v~240v- 50/60Hz 0.3A max
Output: DC 24v 0.5A

PoE injector is used to convert mains AC into DC and power IP devices such as CCTV cameras and Wifi APs. These devices are designed for worldwide sale and are also widely used in the US and alike on 110v supplies. The only thing that makes this compatible I believe for the UK is the regional mains lead:

Supplied lead:

Input socket: UK Plug 5A fuse (BS1363)
Output socket: IEC C5 2.5A
flex: 3G 0.75mm2

I cannot find a 110v 16a commando style connector to IEC C5 probably for a good reason.

My initial thought was that I could simply take a 110v flex, cut the UK plug off and connect in a terminal block. However, this means I'm removing the 5Amp fuse from the circuit also there is a difference in the site provided input flex 1.5mm2 to the 0.75mm2 on the original flex??

How can I make this compliant and where or who could I go to get this passed as safe? If all goes well I will probably eventually need 100's of these but need a prototype run of 1o for the moment.

Where should I go to get these made or certified?

I would still like to know what sort of certificate of installation I could get for this off someone qualified?

Depends what solution you go for. If you have the installation certified BS7671 compliant and have the boxes and cable 110V pat tested I'd have thought that's about all you can do.

You might want to get ask the manufacturer if they approve your PoE injector for 55-0-55V supplies, unlikely to be a problem but it's another box to tick

So I have a prototype for the wiring, the AP ended up in the weatherproof box as the original ones designed to fit only the Fusing and PoE injector was far too small. I only had a large IP66 box to hand.

So before I find someone to cert this and rewire to their preference is this about right? I added an earth bar as I thought the case should be earthed or should I have used a terminal block with a couple of wires stuffed in one end for the box and IEC plug?

BTW the plastic Grid faceplate doesn't fit, I guess I need to order up a metallic one?

I will get round to labelling the 2Amp fuse (BTW the IEC plug I snipped off had a 5Amp fuse in the UK socket?).

Any feedback greatly appreciated.
