    EICR Code - Socket Radial - No CPC

    There's a CPC but No Continuity to it. Seems to be to all circuits, well the ones I could find anyway as it was a Huge Manor house. Needs to be investigated further to locate the break. Otherwise worst case decommissioning or rewire the circuit. I'd say C2. Potentially Dangerous but needs...

    Flickering Lights Issue

    Yes the Lights are affected where high powered appliances are used. I did think myself that it must be from the Supply side as like you said multiple circuits are affected. Thanks for the assistance, Ill go tomorrow and check the connections and then call Western Power. Andy

    Live Earth Reverse

    Booked in to go back, finished the EICR at 3pm but was then faffing around trying to find a nuetral problem until 5pm. Neither socket either side of the break had an issue The break must be under the boards and running the tests today must have made the issue worse. Thanks for the assistance guys.
