The IET is carrying out some important updates between 17-30 April and all of our websites will be view only. For more information, read this Announcement
I have, for example an EICR in front of me where a C2 has been given for trucking lid that has gaps of 25mm. I am sure that it is a tad unsightly but if the BEAMA document is correct then it would not be in breach of the requirements in 521.10.1 albeit not meeting IP4X.
Similarly, there seems to be a general stance taken that top surfaces of enclosures, like distribution boards, isolators etc, with apertures exceeding 1mm in diameter should be reported as a code but that is not necessarily the case if the probe cannot make contact with live parts within the 100mm length specified.
We're about to take you to the IET registration website. Don't worry though, you'll be sent straight back to the community after completing the registration.
