Paul, like yourself, I do not like the way that this new legislation is heading.
I certainly agree with the protection of Domestic People by RCD's.
One thing that you must realise, is the fact of the new Politically-Correct way, to effect Electrical Safety over here is to just put an RCD on it, A feel-good factor.
This legislation is Law, as of 01-01-2003,
and through the Certificate Of Compliance system, they are only going to punish the people who use this system.
Old Appy, what are your views on this subject,will it affect your quoting,
how do you feel about being under-cut by contractors that would not use RCD's, even though NZS3000:2002, or do not use CoC's
Does it annoy, you as much as what it does me?. [Linked Image]
