Equipment in bathroom cupboard

Hi, 

The regs stipulate zones for bathrooms, however I need some guidance on bathroom cupboards.

I have completed an inspection where there is heating control equipment located inside of the bathroom cupboard. This is mounted inside of an IP rated enclosure with a sealed transparent hinged door. There are no metallic parts, no switches etc, just the digital interface for the product itself. 

There is also a network switch, mounted inside of a locked rack enclosure. 
 

Am I right in thinking this is OK and I can treat this as a separate location? 

There are no sockets or switches on show - only 13amp unswitched fused connections. 
 

Thanks.

  • How many official electrical  reports of fatalities do we have in the U.K. from wiring accessories being splashed in bathrooms or shower rooms? Abroad people have been killed when dropping something into an occupied bath such as a phone charger. But here in the U.K?
