Very Odd Domestic consumer unit label

Alcomax
This could be the end of week quiz with a difference.....I have not got a clue on the answer.


This label was stuck on the front of a Domestic Consumer Unit .  The Consumer Unit was manufactured 1999 . It has a metal frame but a plastic cover, as per normal, standard Hager things at that time. The fronts were plastic for domestic purpose aesthetics I presume.


The questions are three fold
  1. Why are there boxes on the label to be ticked?

  • Why is the containment one ticked?

  • Is this a new tick box approach to Periodic Inspection?

    Fairly certain that the containment wording was added to some labels when the requirement for metal consumer units in domestic premises was introduced. Never made much sense to me.
