I work in leisure centers where I am constantly coming across electricity to close to water.(bear with me on this one) ! For example showers spraying into ceiling tiles supporting non IP 65 lights ect.
We have recently had cubicles erected around the showers to enable private showering. This in effect has split the room up. Within the room is a 240v hand-dryer well away from the ist zone ie approx 3 meters.
My question is this. Although we are well clear of the showers in zone/regs ect would I want a child of mine running around wet through and able to touch such an appliance even though the regs say its ok and rcd's and zones and IP's ect say it is?
What do you think and what do I say to a manager who still in-effect wants the dryer within the wet-room???
Thanks,
