Installation of 220V downlights

[murdock]

andy i do believe if the 100 mm clause had to be enforced correctly i could safely say 90 % of downlights in durban would be illegal....and a huge majoity of COC issued would have to be withdrawn.


i believe the only problem with that light is the cover missing...so long as the standard test finger cannot touch any live wires...

i believe there should have been a junction box with one wire feeding the light and with heat resistant wire or sleeved with asbestos tape...but unfortunately the reality that would be regarded as over doing it.

Murdock, asbestos tape? Can you still get anything asbestos, especially tape? I thought that it's a banned substance because it's proven to cause asbestosis (a form of cancer of the lungs).
