Electric bidet

[SaberTooth]

Do the regulations say anything about installing an electric bidet in the bathroom (obviously) ?

whats electric about it?

It's an enhanced toilet seat that has a small spray pump - you push a button and it does the cleaning for you. Hence no paper! And it might have incorporated a dryer and many other functions.

So no one has ever installed similar items? What about a hand dryer?

The regs don't generally deal with specific items of equipment - otherwise there'd be amendments every time a new bit of kit comes on the market, such as the fart-extractor Manrose have just brought out - rather they deal with generic items.

As an item of fixed equipment it will have to conform with the general rules for electrical equipment in bathrooms.

Thanks for your reply. Very appreciated.

The point is it needs a power socket I assume it should be installed like a shower pump (after all it is a sort of pump).

you can not have an electric socket in a room that is a bathroom.

The other thing is what do you do when you have "finished" and you get a powercut?

to me it sounds a novel idea, but no job is finished untill the paperwork is done
