  • Is providing 30 mA RCD protection for sockets supplying equipment used outdoors or for that matter an electric shower in PRS homes really and truly an unnecessary expense for the landlord?

    “Are we saying that the expense is justified because tenants are more stupid than those who own their own homes (or have a mortgage)?”

    Can an employer fail to comply with H&S requirements because training and PPE for employees is “too expensive”?

    Those who are homeowners make their own decisions, generally tenants are reliant on landlords for their homes electrical installation being safe.
