Good afternoon, first time post so be gentle please, I work for an organisation looking after different types of buildings, I have recently commissioned a condition report for a district heating plant room, the report has come back with 1# code 2 defect, details:
Circuit designation and details - Transformer Socket, Socket & Security Alarm. 2.5mm MICC clipped direct & protected by 20Amp BS3871-3MCB.
Code 2 Circuit Defect - No RCD protection to socket outlet in plant room CCT 6 - 2B
Test results are all fine, supplementary and main protective bonding is installed in line with current regulations and the overall installation is in good condition, maintained and reported on regularly. Its not really an issue to protect the socket with an RCD, even though the whole of the circuit is located within an area that can only be accessed by instructed persons there is an outside chance the outlet could be used to protect mobile equipment outside of the building and its equipotential zone however, I'm not sure I should be seeing a code 2 defect noted on the report.
Any thoughts?
