1: Dropped it into a bag and presented to the front desk of the Electrical commission here in Brisbane..
2: Asked if one of their senior tecs / inspectors could check the unit out / comment

3: Came back about 45min later to collect.. 8-)
4: On returning was ushered into an office with two suites :-X
5: Before saying much I just provided a note with the following
"the techie still claiming the old part (which he handed over) was not broken, and it had to be my earth leakage being too sensitive. "
6: There was some discussion that followed and I had the option to submit a "Dangerous Event complaint".... I did not go down that path; as the item has been repaired.
However the commission indicated very strongly that the user in this case was lucky and that others may not be so lucky and or may not have an ELCB and could be at risk. And that this is still a reportable offence and that I need to consider my own licences, as it is a mandatory for me to file a formal report and part of the T&C of my licence..
I am attending further Electrical and information sessions this week and may raise this item and processes there; for further discussion.... But I am 99.95% sure of what the outcome will be.
Philip if you read this; can you please PM me the supplier details...

AM.
PS. If ya have not realised... The unit is Faulty and considered Dangerous. In all these circumstances the item should have also been modified to ensure it can not be used.. It was not and further hints at the experience / understanding the TECH / Company has.
