hi there
when you add a circuit to a C.U. where there is no existing label for when it was last inspected/tested, is it permissable to place your own pir sticker on the C.U. without carrying out a EICR. if you write UNKNOWN (last inpection) and ASAP (next inspecton) or is there another way ??.

hi,buddies today was the 2391 written exam and i must say that it was a fairly eassy paper, and i'll be disapointed if the national average success is gone to be as low as the december 2011 one (37%)

Hi guys,
Is it true that NICEIC requires that the PIR testing is the 100% of the installation? I have always tested around 50-60%, but now I have client who is saying that the NICEIC wants 100%.

Hi,
