I can’t quote chapter and verse, but the first point seems analogous to the installation of an additional circuit within the apartment, perhaps to service an array of electrical equipment that might not have been envisaged over 30 years ago. That would surely be the owner’s responsibility.
Power outlets linked to the low-amperage lighting circuits seem like a disaster waiting to happen. 30 years’ trouble-free use seems like good luck (trickle chargers or low-powered hand-held vacuum cleaners perhaps), but the next owner might want to plug in a high-powered drill or something similar. Unfair? Yes, but the unfairness in this case seems to be attributable to the ‘cowboys’ responsible for the situation in the past, not the present strata administration probably acting on sound advice.
