theoretically , you may be correct.
but would you like to prove your theory , possibly whilst wearing rubber sole trainers ?
i doubt it. ;-)
I've got rubber pants on - will that do?

Correct that it should be changed. But your incorrect regarding RCD. It wont sleep though incident, if someone drills it will short to earth through the drill, the imbalance would trip RCD. If someone nailed it and hit line tail it would fault to earth through them , limit shock and disconnect. It wouldn't disconnect just on BS88 fuse.
Current would still go to earth (via you), rather than returning through the neutral though. RCD should still trip. Obviously I'm not defending the current situation though (little pun there for you). Daz
I'm on it Monday time to kick back and relax for the weekend now I think. I think alternative route will be the way forward.
not necessarily. most hammers have insulated shafts, so the L conductor could be pierced by a nail and if there is no leakage to E, the RCD would not trip. i'd not be putting my faith in a RCD anyway.fair enough , your right im wrong.but im not going to suggest relying on a rcd is the solution to a potentially lethal design.
