    As long as everything is IP2x is this the case as i know a CU without a blank would be classed as a C1 along with a broken socket outlet.

    On the assumption that an adult (British Standard) finger would easily fit through an 18 mm slot (at lealmost invariably yes C1 for a CU; but not every damaged socket outlet is going to be C1, let alone C2.

    Here is an example: the working part of an unswitched socket has become partially detached from the cover plate so that when the user tries to put in a plug, it falls backwards. However it is not so loose as to allow a finger in the gap. How would you code it and why?

    (I do bear in mind that sockets are accessible to small people with small fingers.)
