URGENT Electrical/Plumbing Question

I treat anything within a bathroom even if out of zone as a special location. I'm not Part P so I use a tame sparks in al cases. This "fellow" has circumvented the regs by not hardwiring it and avoided issue of an MWC which it should have had. Apropos of nothing I did one just recently where I installed a whirlpool bath for the client. Tame sparks terminated the cable in a JB and then came back to connect the pump once it was installed. Bath side panel clipped on rather than being secured and so being easily removeable for access JB deemed fine.
As regards the shower head being removeable it need only have a check valve fitted if it can fall into the bath when the bath is full of water thus giving rise to possible syphonage. If the rail is fitted with a loop through which the hose is passed like this one:
that prevents the head falling all the way into the bath then it does not require a check valve.
