I am a new member an have what I think is an interesting question.I have been given a spec for an product which will be installed outdoors and be accessed by the public. The installation requires the fitment of 4x heater lamps. The lamps are connected to 230v ac by means of a plastic junction box to which 4x sockets are secured by 8 x M3 metal screws. There are also 4xM8 bolts securing a bracket to the box. The bracket is held onto a powder coated aluminium spar by compression, thus there is no earthing of the part. As Far as I am concerned all of the exposed metal parts should be earthed. Am I correct? If so and as it is a manufactured product. What are the correct regulations which should have been followed in manufacture.
I look forward to your thoughts
