[quote author=koolwabbit link=1087491101/0#5 date=1087545878] My shop has it`s own power supply and I have changed all the sockets and switches for steel ones [/quote] I'd like an opinion on whether changing sockets and switches for steel varieties would be considered a good idea?
I'm not suggesting there's anything wrong with steel sockets and switches, but the thought crosses my mind that this could increase the risk level.
Firstly, in order for an electric shock to occur it requires a circuit to be made to earth - and the steel sockets would provide an easy path to earth if you brushed against them, wouldn't they?
Secondly, in a fault situation is it not possible that the steel socket could become live?
Just curious - I'm not trying to say this is wrong.
