[QUOTE="phil d, post: 448707, member: 27126"] I had something similar in a doctors surgery, no EM fitting in a toilet, despite the fact that said toilet has no windows and therefore no natural light. The manager asked me to do an EICR on the building, even without doing any tests, I found numerous issues, and although the light didn't apply to what I'd been asked to do I mentioned it anyway, as a safety issue. He didn't see the need for an EM fitting, in a toilet with no natural light, the switch being outside the room, so it could be switched off while someone is in there, likewise imagine being in a toilet with your strides around your ankles and the power fails, you trip over and hit your head on the washbasin. Honestly for very little money you'd just stick an EM fitting in. Lets be honest even if it was just fed from the fitting in the room it would do, at least if that fitting lost power you'd still have light, some people are just too tight. [/QUOTE]
