Did a job today where I had a 6mm T&E on a 32amp retrofit MCB (re used old circuit) going into a RCD spur (13amp) then a 2.5mm going off to a shower pump. There is also an unswitched 3amp fused spur halfway down the 2.5mm with a 1mm going to a mirror light.
Sounds a bit of a muddle I know but...

We have installed a new supply to a 3 phase heater in a commercial property . This consisted of a new 10mm armoured cable running from a existing board to a new isolator on the wall. My question is do we have to fill out a full blown electrical cert or can we use a minor circuit as it was only 1...

I have been installing several appliances lately in rental properties and the agents/landlords have been asking for installation certificates.
Im not happy to issue a Minor Works cert or a EIC because they all require R1+R2, RCD Times, Zs, Ze, etc.
Has anyone got a plain certificate saying said...

The property is a shop with a flat above and the problem I have is the landlord understands it's unsafe and wants it switched off and fixed but the tenant’s aren’t having any of...

On a EIC, if you add another consumer unit to an existing install, is it an addition or a new install? ive always put new install but my mate puts addition. also when you sign the test cert, should you put everyone's name that was involved? e.g builder cutting holes for spots? or if the design...
I've just installed a couple of additional 12v down lights and changed extractor fan in a bathroom. The lighting circuit is one with no CPC.
How would you complete a MEW?
Obviously tests are limited in this case, but where would you use LIM, X, - etc in the relevant boxes?
thanks.
Sorry if this has already been talked about couldn’t find it on forum.

I looked...

Does the Fronius IG30PLUS have a G83 certificate? I can only seem to find a G59/2 which strikes me as a bit odd. Anyone installed one of these?
