    Hi All, just carried out an EICR on a rented property that has mains smoke detectors, there is no SPD fitted and as I understand any safety service should be protected by an SPD, what code would you give this.

    EICR Code for two circuits on one cable.

    Hi, Currently undertaking an EICR on a factory, we have came across an 4 core SWA and 4 Core SY which have been split in the DB to serve two separate circuits. The SWA has the Brown on a 10A MCB and the Grey is on a 16A. So clearly they have shared earths and shared neutrals, similar scenario...

    I commissioned an EICR to be done on a property that is in Wales as this is now a requirement in order to let on any new tenancies after 1st December 2022 (Renting Homes Act 2016).

    SY cable on EICR again ....

    Morning all So the site I'm based at recently had some work done (think partitioners). This package of work included electrical. This was actually good news to me in a way, as it was one less job for me to do on an already busy schedule - but it was niggling at me that I'd possibly end up...

    Will this fuse board require work prior to EICR?

    I was just about to book an EICR inspection for my property when the decorator said he didn't think the fuse board would pass. He said there was no RCD on the top board and partial on the bottom one. So rather than pay twice I was thinking of getting any potential work done first prior to the...

    Hi all, Does anyone know if I can pay to have an EICR done for part of a house (so I can put plasterboard up etc... safe in the knowledge that that section of the house is OK?). I'm doing quite a large building project on 5 bedroom house. Could I do the remaining part (kitchen) on a separate...

    EICR FI faults holding up Satisfactory certificate.

    Just had an EICR, and the tester won't provide a satisfactory certificate until FI faults are corrected. These mainly consist of locating circuits that they didn't test. On the last EICR that took place at my site (17th edition) I recall the rectification of C1 and C2 faults being sufficient...

Quick visual survey today to estimate my time, and instant thoughts are no RCDs anywhere, cables clipped surface here, there and everywhere and joint boxes hidden behind wood panelling.

    AFDD EICR - unsatisfactory report landlord

    We are new landlords and have just got an EICR done. The building is only 5 years old so I am shocked that remedial work has been noted as necessary/mandatory. Apparently AFDDs needs to be fitted as the building is over 6 story’s high (it’s a 4th floor one bed flat) due to a regulation that came...

    My EICR test guy says I need to change my bathroom ceiling light to an IP65 rated.

    My EICR test guy says I need to change my bathroom ceiling light to an IP65 rated. Research says I need an IP44. The lamp is about 2.45m above the floor and about 30cms outside the side of the bath. Has he made a mistake or have I?
