Good day all
I had to inspect a property for a COC. I know understand why people say a COC needs an expiry date. The building is about 60 years old. The past 20 years it had the same owner and every 3 - 5 years it had new lessors with big dreams for the property. Every somebody new rent the place they modified the building and wiring to adapt to their big dreams. Now the building needs rewiring and they need a quick COC to get the sale through, the quick COC isn't gonna happen, the supply is still the old TN-c type. The wiring is a mess, have to rewire the whole building or put a temp db up and disconnect the building and issue COC
My question is regarding the outbuilding grey meter kiosk.
The building have a 2core swa supply to the outbuilding and a plug underneath the kiosk, which is at knee height.
I know an outside kiosk or db must have an IP rating sufficient for it's environment, but what is the height restrictions? Is it the same as that for inside a house?
The outbuilding have no ELU protection and no earth and inside everything is on the one circuit
Have a blessed weekend and may you have no load shedding this weekend....
Greetings
