Rather than tie Paul's original thread up, as it was a thread-jack in the first place, I thought I'd start a new thread.
As Kiwi was saying, the Instructions you get these days with new Fixed Appliances and the like here are nothing short of rediculous.
Now I read that the fine for installing non-compliant equipment is to be "capped" at NZ$50,000.
Should the person that installs this equipment be lumbered with that fine, or should it be transferred to the person that bought the appliance, or the company that imported it in the first place?.
We as Electrical contractors should NOT be looked upon as the Police for an industry that can't even police imports.
If we started doing that, we could lose all sorts of work.
I'd say nip these appliances in the bud as they enter the country.
After all, that's what our Tax dollars pay Customs for isn't it?.
