Hi guys, just curious. I have a plastic electric kettle that has an earth lead in the flex. I can't see much point in it. It will trip the RCD in the event of an element insulation breakdown so there's some use there. Any thoughts?
Yes, I agree class I appliances such as desk top PCs would use a lower test current such as 100mA.
It would still be a class I item and in need of verification of cpc plug to case continuity. I think we are saying the same thing. I would add that inspecting and testing relies on the expertise of the inspector to make the correct judgment call.
