Fair enough I can see the sense there, it's always recommended to comply with the latest regs even if there's nothing wrong with the previous.
Er no ...... wrong, wrong, wrong

Would people actually encourage/expect customers to change their CU in response to a C3 on this matter?
Some of the committee members, seem to have an alternate opinion, it would seem.
I know. Idiots. How can a location affeect how dangerous something is? Either it is dangerous or it is not dangerous. Either it requires improving or it does not..

Regarding the metal CUs with a TT supply, I notice network rail found a similar issue. Perhaps we should approach all TT CUs where a fault has been reported with a volt stick! Or better still have double insulated CUs. http://www.tracksafetyalliance.co.uk/storage/documents/Safety Bulletin NRB 17_07 - Test before touch while fault finding.pdf
But after 133 posts & 9 pages, there's still disagreement on the OP.
Was that directed at me? I never suggested that was true.Where in the Regs does it state plastic CUs must be used for TT supplies?

We would not change the coding of damaged cables based on their location.
