CHANGES IN AMD 2 RELUCTANCE TO COMPLY

John Peckham

I heard before AMD 2 that compliance with the requirement to install AFDDs where required would stop clients having consumer units upgraded due to the additional cost. 

The requirement to fit as a "shall" is limited to 4 types of installation has anyone experienced a refusal to upgrade the installation with AFDDs when replacing a consumer unit?

Also has anyone experienced any reluctance when upgrading an installation where SPDs are required under the new provisions of AMD 2?

The same question as above, any reluctance to install smoke detectors in domestic premises where an SPD needs to be fitted to the circuit supply the smoke detectors?

Thanks

JP

    I am having difficulty trying to get customers to upgrade to Type-A RCDS when they already have a type AC RCD. Typical examples would be installation of LED lights or circuit modifications during kitchen refurbishment to accommodate all the new fancy appliances.

    I am not even having conversations about AFDDs yet. Come September I am hoping pricing had got more affordable, but I am not holding my breath.
