A multi-occupier building has, in a communal service cupboard, a

different items of low-power fixed communal equipment (it is
not easy to see what each of those actually does - or did.

How should that setup be described, on a scale running from
entirely satisfactory to absolutely illegal?


I expect the person who did it didn't have an extra plug and two way
adapter, or the ability to get them.
