Bathroom lighting RCD?

So most switches are not suitable for use anywhere? I don't need to tell you that that's just plain daft!
Now you're being silly.

Yes, but in the context of this thread, it's not as simple as that, is it? I thought we were talking about regulatory requirements (a.k.a 'what is allowed', or 'what BS7671 requires') and the answer is/was that the regs require that the item in question be 'suitable for the environment' (per manufacturer's opinion).
Right.
Nothing in the regs, nor anything that you or I have written in this thread, suggests that someone can 'contract out' of that regulation on the basis that it is "up to them".
Is that not what I said?

I then said I don't think it should be advised - by us.

Well, you said that (in the absence of an explicit 'OK' from the manufacturer) "it's up to you", or something like that. That seemed to imply that it was a matter of person choice, but did not really say that it would be no-compliant with regs.

Yes, you did add something like that.

Kind Regards, John
