Not familiar with that particular entry system, but why are there 4 separate identical power supplies?
Sadly it will therefore be down to the nursery to take legal action against the installers to force them to rectify their non-compliant and dangerous work.UPDATE : They have refused to correct any of it ! where to from here ....
Wouldn't that be preferable to them putting kids in danger? (And making money by doing so!)what could well happen is that they are forced to close
Plan B, if you are suitably competent - quote for putting it all right at the same time as fixing the functional problems. Make sure you are scrupulous in separating the two so that you aren't later accused of misrepresenting the cause(s) of the problems to get extra work.UPDATE : They have refused to correct any of it ! where to from here ....
Pete, where is this Nursery area wise? The installer might be part of a Part P scheme though as has mentioned it's not classed as residential but if you found out if they are a supposed member to one of them you could report them to their body - i think they'd take an interest in the shoddy work.Thanks for the comments thus far.
...and yes the cables in the trunking should be segregated as the twisted pair does not meet the highest voltage present in the trunking (if I understand band1 and band2 circuits correctly)
So, in essence, and without going into any detail, it doesn't comply with BS7671 ? which should be enough to go back to the original installers with and let them figure out why (and put it right ! ), else have a report drawn up from a qualified engineer - but that's doing half the job for them !
Is there a government body that this/the installers can/should be reported to, in light of the fact that it isn't covered under part P ?
It's worth a try.I was going to say to report it with RIDDOR, but it doesn't seem to come under that.
No they're not. They're leaving risk assessing of sockets to the nursery. They do not demand covers.Trouble is that Ofsted inspectors are not knowledgeable about electrical risks - they're still demanding those stupid 13A socket covers.

Try telling that to my Daughter!No they're not. They're leaving risk assessing of sockets to the nursery. They do not demand covers.
