[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 483155, member: 1607"] Your fan example is probably no worse than an electric shower mounted over a bath where the shower head is not fixed and able to fall into the bath. As I believe most shower instructions state that the hose should be fed through some sort of loop to prevent the head from being able to be immersed in a bath tub of water. Presents no direct danger, but is not in accordance with installation instructions, but electrically everything is satisfactory. Or maybe a mains powered smoke detector mounted in an incorrect physical location, e.g. too close to light fittings or corners of walls. Again functionally inappropriate, not in accordance with manufactures guidance, but no electrical hazard or danger. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
