C2 for me and has it got an overheat cut out on the stat as well .Best idea to isolate it for now ..as the heat from the immersion could make the tape come off 😮
C1 for me all day, I can easily touch a live terminal and it is accessible without the use of a tool. Disconnect and make safe.
C1 because you can touch the neutral, which should be considered as a live conductor as well as the line. It’s probably bonded to earth, but if there’s resistance in the bonding then there could be a potential to the probably grounded copper cylinder.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts 👍🏻
C2 Access to live parts without the use of a tool and without a deliberate action.
Thanks for taking the time to comment 👍🏻
I would go C3 as it was covered but room for improvment
Has the thermostat got over temperature reset button on it or is it the old temperature thermostat with out the reset button
C2, damaged, as well as unsecured, so not fit for purpose.
C3, 👍 shared 👍
Thanks for commenting 👍🏻
Excellent video guys. Hoping to see you posting to Odysee due to many switching over to escape so many adverts
Anything pushed in there and the cap is pushed towards the back ...pvc tape easily removed when warm.../ And you wont find out till you put a hand in
