AM2 changes on sources for SELV and PELV

roger Farnsworth

I wonder if anyone here can shed some light on this matter ! - 

 According to BS7671 reg 701.414.3  SELV or PELV supplys in zones 0  / 1 / 2  as described in reg 414.3 (iv) shall not be used  , therefore my question is this , we have previously used IP67 rated 12 / 24 v DC switching mode power supplies to feed colour changing LED downlights in pool areas etc - does the change to BS7671 now make this non compliant ??  and do i now require the extra expense of an isolation transformer ??  I recently asked this question during a seminar on the new AM2 regs , and nobody came up with an answer !?!

Thanks .

    I too have been searching to an answer to this problem.  In practical terms, does anyone know of an "off the shelf" product that will satisfy 701.414.3
