I'll see that and raise you this :)

Fault between cpc and strapper? Nail through switch drop perhaps?

Loved the 'Exploded' and 'Detonated' in that article. Far more dramatic than the usual 'blew' or 'popped'. :D

It definitely isn't. Its a bodge.

I admit that a specific regulation as regards the two phases is a tough one and the only one I could quote is 514.10.1 as regards labelling and warning notices as there were none on the cover. The only warning is the DANGER 480V scrawled across the busbar cover. As for custom made, I would call...

Four ring final circuits split across two RCDs on two seperate phases. The neutrals for the two ring finals on the left hand side are jammed into the load side neutral terminal on the RCD. Code 2 but was rectified immediately.

What if a small shower room connected to the hallway had the door removed. Would you have an open plan kitchenbathroomette?

Yep, got a 6amp one in my test kit. At the time I worked for the tightest man on the planet. Surprised he didn't take the price of the fuse wire out of my wages.
