And still he can't describe a scenario that such a fault could occur?

It's typical behaviour of someone who out of their depth, hurl abuse in the hope that it will intimidates, in my experience I just laugh at the clear un intelligence of such people!

 
What a lot of twaddle being spouted in this thread. I'll pick up on just one 

JUDGE

Yes if the BACKBOX WAS EARTHED it wouldn't of caused this fatality do to the fault at the time
you could only make that statement that an earthed back box would have prevented a fatality IF YOU WERE THERE and witnessed EXACTLY what happened.

I'll give an argument for sometimes NOT fitting a fly lead.  Some back boxes are just too crowded, e.g switched FCU in 25mm back box. It's hard enough getting the wires you have to into the box without damaging them, let alone adding an extra one for some theoretical event where the person working on it should have isolated before removing the accessory.

P.S  my pet grammar "mistake" 

"It wouldn't OF caused...

the correct grammar is "It Wouldn't HAVE caused...."

Look up OF in the dictionary, then look up have. They are not interchangeable words.

P.P.S

One poster on this thread is using a lot of bad language. This is the friendly forum, we don't like bad language. If it persists, them Mr Smith might have to have words with you. you don't want to upset Mr Smith.

I have to wait 5 days now to find out complying with the regs means I have also complied with EAWR. :C

Still, he might pop back later with a new name if I'm lucky, I should have a few beers by then, :D
