Mornin' all,

Would you say that the above regulation covers a large old farm barn, now used as a workshop/man cave/motorbike storage area/snooker room? The old barn is over 100 years old. It has thick solid walls and is attached to a modernish bungalow, but with no direct access to the bungalow. Basically can I install a plastic cased consumer unit?

    never underestimate the lifespan of a spot-weld, if it once ever makes a small area  contact with enough current it will ‘stick’ until disturbed. It is one of the reasons why arcs in copper wires or between copper electrodes  are so hard to strike As far as I can tell a lot of twist and tape type car electrics utterly relies on this principle of scratch and stick.
