Hi everyone,
My builder (Wisdom Homes) gave me keys to the house 19th December 2016. There are a number rectification works outstanding and the builder is dragging his feet. I have decided to take it up with the NSW Civil and Administration Tribunal.
One of the rectification works relates to electrical outlets in bathroom for bidet.

The contract drawings show a dual 10A socket outlet for bidet as shown in the photograph but which is missing. The builder's electrician (Sydney Electrical Group) will not install the socket outlet. The electrician would not provide me in writing the reasons as to why. I suspect it has to do with the proximity to the shower outlet and I have marked on the photo the distances from the shower head to the outlet.
The electrician is proposing to hardwire the bidet cable. However this would not only void the warranty, but also make it impossible to isolate power for regular cleaning purposes.
Can anyone explain what the problem is, and if there is one, perhaps recommend a solution please. I need to put this in my Tribunal application.
Thanks in advance.
