[Deleted member 26818]

But after 133 posts & 9 pages, there's still disagreement on the OP.

What was the original question?

How many bananas can you fit inside a Cooper S.

Bent or straight ones

Ahh what the hell. My question is (not aimed solely at Westward).

Who makes the rules about the code for plastic CU's under wooden stairs or in sole escape route, when your doing your EICR's. Shirley you would use the guidance given by the grown-ups, 'cos they must know better than you; or do you just make up your own?

Yes I know, but it is surprising how many people spell Surely as Shirley.

I use it as a cheap form of wit, hoping to catch people out.

I'm surprised that after all this time and the new regs. That a plastic or wooden consumer unit isn't required to have a smoke/heat detector at its location.
if there is genuine concern that a plastic CU or wood surround would allow fire to start in a hall cupboard below stairs or similar location ….
why don't HSE /Regs insist on a detector within the cupboard .?

I'm now going to dive for cover lol

Probably wouldn't last five minutes in an under stairs cupboard.
