VRF Equipment fed off local Lighting Circuits

Eddie Currents
What are your thoughts with VRF Equipment being fed off local Lighting circuits – For me not good practice and strongly oppose this but i cannot find a Clause anywhere in the new Regulations. Has anyone ever come across this before or am i being too pedantic ? The VRF Units will have local isolation but for me its still a problem as you will lose your Lighting if you need to switch off at the Breaker for any reason like switching for Mechanical Maintenance.

    That's correct we had similar issue with an AC Unit years ago with a lid left off. For that reason power should be isolated before entering voids and an RA carried out. We also dont allow junction boxes unless labelled and ocated below ceilings and are accessible. This minimises the risk and was a consequence of the historical issue.
