Apologies in advance for yet another Hot Tub TNC-S related thread but I'm just after a few opinions after deliberating for some time on an EICR coding.
EICR at a domestic property was found to have a Hot Tub installed on an outdoor patio which is slate flagstone construction, the hot tub is fed from a split load CU in the property in T&E where it meets an SWA in a roof void then continues outside to a DP rotary isolator adjacent to the hot tub. Supply to the property is TNC-S and hot tub circuit is taken from 30mA side of the split load CU. Due to me being well aware of possible issues caused by potential between the TNC-S provided earth and true earth alongside the possible (albeit rare) scenario of the suppliers PEN conductor being lost I have been deliberating wether this should be classified as code 2 or as code 3 because under normal operation there is no potential danger.
Any opinions appreciated as well as if classified C2 should the fix comprise of a supplementary earth rod at the rotary isolator, or to split at this point replacing the isolator with an RCD loosing the TNC-S earth here and converting to TT.
