have been caused by 'a defective component'.
ITYM 'an incorrect component'
Thanks - sorry about that - probably thinking of the previous
discussions as I wrote it...
In many ways an incorrect component is rather less disturbing than a
defective component, as the latter would indicate a wrong side failure.
Obviously incorrect installation or maintenance is still a concern,
but at least we now have a better idea as to the underlying cause.
Also, in that context, the comment about checking that similar
components are not present at other sites makes more sense.
