Comments please folks.
Oh if only life was simple! I'm in conflict with the local building control officer.
I've wired a boiler (combi) in a bathroom (wiring to 17th ed by another company last year), its edge is 40cm from the edge of the sink and is to be boxed in. The BCO has said its in zone 2 and its not 60cm from the edge of the sink and that the boiler or sink must be moved!!!!!!! I could have dropped through the floor, I explained very nicley that sinks are not in any zone and asked him to justify what he was demanding. I did'nt want to even start going into zone two and tools to remove covers etc with him. He just said move one or the other and that zone 2 extends from the edge of the sink to 60cm and all equipment should be SELV!!! Oh he was not there to pass my or the plumbers work but to look at a beam in the house!!! Now I've done a few of these and so has the plumbing firm, I'm going to contact niceic to see if they will help. Comments please
