I would like to ask some advice, from a COC POV.

A "SR690C geyser controller" needs to be plugged into a plug point, and then drive a geyser. This doesn't quite sound right to me but it's a popular solar geyser controller.

Now, the question, since the control unit it plugged into the wall socket, it has an earth, and then a new cable runs from the unit into the roof, into the geyser element - which can't be more than 2KW.

Is this acceptable? I know it won't pass a COC, but since it's now on a plug point, would it need to? The geyser is probably about 8m away from the plug, as the wire runs up along the wall, into the roof, along the trusses.
