Ring main fault

[D Skelton]

Is it potentially dangerous
this IS open to interpretation

Yes, and as a competent inspector you should be able to make that call confidently and safe in the knowledge that it is backed by a firm and fundamental understanding of the regulations.

If you'd have come on here saying something like "So today I found such and such whilst doing a periodic inspection, I gave it a code 2 because of this, this and this. Would you guys concur with my decision?" then my response to you would have been entirely different.

I some times like to watch emmerdale, but this forum is much more entertaining.

Agreed.

And god damn it OP, i opened this post because i thought you had a fault on a Ring Main not a Ring Final Circuit.

The open circuit you have left has a open end, loose and free to possibly touch something.

Just remember one thing,you touched it last so if it goes pear shaped and ends in a court case it,s you in the dock! I,he personally been involved in one where it did go badly wrong,not my fault I hasten to add,but when the powers that be come looking they bear a striking similarity to a certain well known German division during the war.
