    EICR Certificate not issued. Not all circuits RCD protected rated C2

    I agree I’m getting bored of all this just upgrade/update to modern standards as much as you possibly can. I’m not saying any previous editions are not safe just feel that we always go round in circles with 15th/16th/17th and 18th edition anyway it’s nearing Xmas and the main thing is to stay...

    New kitchen does it need own fusebox or change just the mains fusebox?

    I think you’re electrician is advising the most sensible thing here and saying to install a new ring main to kitchen to separate his work from any existing wiring/circuits. If you gave him the go ahead to do an EICR prior to the work he could then determine the condition of the existing...

    EICR Certificate not issued. Not all circuits RCD protected rated C2

    I agree with you here but I also understand what Erik is saying on our visual inspection we have to code the supply characteristics and I’ve had to ring the DNO as you’ve said to notify them of any immediate/potential danger, always same protocol with the call operator asking the same questions...

    EICR Certs - NICEIC registration

    Then why was the electrical contractor asked to carry out the report in the first place, the agent as the landlord has put it should know better and can’t now complain because remedial work has been advised surely the agent has a good understanding of how the system works my hunch is a landlord...

    EICR Certs - NICEIC registration

    It seems to me that the landlord is looking to go against the electrician who has recommended the upgrades on his property and come on here to give himself some clout based on our replies. It’s a fine line and I’ll always back my fellow sparks unless the work is non compliant to our blue bible...

    Why do commercial sparks bash house bashers?

    If I seen that I would call 999. My comments were derogatory to the metal munching industry which I do still enjoy just took offence to the house bashers which I’m a member of these days.

    Why do commercial sparks bash house bashers?

    There are many people who call themselves sparks. When all they have done is cut a few bits of metal and threaded a few nuts after being thrown on site by doing naff all.

    Why do commercial sparks bash house bashers?

    I’ve just read through all of these posts and I’m currently a domestic spark (house basher) insult that is.
