earth continuity

[vad25]

Hello all!

I've changed CU today and when tested light circuit discovered that two switches(metallic) has not earth in.I know it is incorrect.

Your advise please:

What shall I write in EIC. I could not solve this problem(not visible joints available and I did it for assessment).

I know that best way improve it but nobody wants to pay for it.

thank you!

Nylon screws are excessive surely, depending on the back box?

if the backbox is metallic, then its an exposed part, and is electrically connected to the screw, making them an exposed part. just as dangerous as metallic front. only exception to this would be some older backboxes with a nylon lug for the screws

Denmans designa switches which I believe are made by GET have the plastic plugs which cover the screws, this would be ok.
