    Hi Guys. If carrying out an EICR you are unable to find a UFH circuits spur, is the EICR still passable under some type of limitation? Or is there a code involved. Thank you! Smarky

    Amending EICR report from unsatisfactory to satisfactory

    So I've recently had an EICR for my building. Came back with about 20 odd C2 remedials and a few F1's which resulted in UNSATISFACTORY being written on the report which you'd expect. Completed all the remedials and the QS has come back and passed them all off, but will not put SATISFACTORY on...

    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...

    Confusing EICR, 'Satisfactory' assessment but C1 present

At the time (which I admit was some while ago) I was slightly confused by it but in all the chaos of buying the house, I...

    Could This Be A Fused Neutral?

    Hi, came across this today, double width cutout, never seen it before. Not sure if it could be fused on the neutral or whether I am worrying with no need. Any advice appreciated. (Haven't pulled the cutout obviously, even though it isn't sealed - I have a feeling it might be too stiff to pull...

    Condition report for the old installations

    I have to do a Condition Report for an old installation. Everything is ok but the installation doesn't have RCD's, even for those circuits required by the 17th Edition. Can I write that the installation is "satisfactory" without RCD's ?

    EICR retification.

    What do you guys do after rectification of defects listed on an EICR. Reinspect the installation and issue a new EICR? Do you charge for the inspection again? Issue a new EICR? Fill out a MW or EIC for the rectifications and provide with the 1st EICR?
