Wall light, exposed insulation.

[robocod]

Hi all,

I have a wall light where the feed comes out from the plaster and down into the back of the light fitting. This is the top of the light fitting, about 2.2 meters off the ground;



The three connect via inline wagos, into another flex and into the light body, with the metal body of the light connected to earth. As I need to get an EICR, I was wondering if the exposed insulation as seen here will be a fail? I could probably heat shrink it, I just wondered if it was going to be a problem.

Thanks.

Move the light fitting into a higher position?

Move the light fitting into a higher position?

The fitting is plastered into the wall.

Suggest you chop into wires into the wall and cover the wires with filler.

The fitting is plastered into the wall.

Are you sure about that?

The light fitting is screwed to the wall, with four screws. Moving it up is awkward as these are perm live light with an integral switch, any higher and you won't be able to reach them unless you have a step

I've heat shrinked the exposed insulators back into the wall and down behind the light, caucking over the hole a little for good measure. I'm assuming this will pass muster as there is no now insuation on view?
