Hi Everyone. What are the opinions on the new socket outlets. SANS says all socket outlets in a new installation shall comply with SANS164-2. What is deemed a new installation - nothing is defined. Would an existing industrial installation where new plant is installed still be deemed a 'new installation'. I am assuming so.
I know there is a lot of chatter about this subject and a lot of different interpretations about it. Once again it seems to be a grey area. When this regulation became effective in January 2018 you could not get industrial switched sockets that complied with the regulation. I see now they are starting to appear.
