Hi all ,
Just a few random ones , when completing an EICR where are we coding things such as shared neutrals , voltage present on circuits etc.. what section on the schedule of inspections are we coding this against ?
Also unidentified circuits where you believe they warrant further...
Hello,
I am in the process of training to be an electrician and have a question. When filling out a EIC for a new circuit am I required to test all the other circuits in the board as part of the schedule of test results or only circuits I have installed/altered when completing?
If just my new...

Do you have a planner or diary that you organise each job on? or do you opt for a more modern approach where everything is in your phone/online calendar and synced across all devices...
This is slightly pedantic, so right up my street.
I'm filling out an EICR. The sockets are wired in 2.5 (apart from some in the kitchen that have been wired in 1mm 3 core and earth. Don't ask...) with a 30 amp 3036 as ocpd.
Forgetting the obvious C2's, the question I have is regarding the...
Second post of the evening for me!
Just wondering if there is some sort of guidance for the schedule of items inspected pages on the NICEIC test certs?
Seems like a list of things which could be interpreted in different ways so it would be good to have a definitive explanation for each if...
On a couple of recent EICRs I've run into FCUs on a RFC, then 1.5 or 1mm to several lighting points and would be interested how people would note this on the schedule?
On the most recent one there are 6 outside lanterns fed from an FCU on the socket circuit, with max R1+R2 outside of 4.5Ohm...

I’m new to the forum so first of all a quick hello ? I have my AM2 in the near future & got a query regarding the schedule of test results, namely the cable reference method and cable type. I know reference methods can be found in BS7671 (APP 4). Where there is more than one method for a...

Hi Everyone,
Just a quick question, in the 18th edition wiring regulations book page 483 the schedule of tests results form it shows IR tests Live-Live & Live-Earth
Are they now going away from the Line-Neutral, Line-Earth & Neautral-Earth & just doing the combined test?
Thanks
Michael
When adding just a couple of circuits to an existing installation, what exactly do you put on the schedule of results with regards to the old circuits.
Just the circuit number and name or do you add the breaker details also like bsen, type, breaking capacity, rating. Obviously can't add ref...
I was doing some practical on the next module at college last Friday. The module is fault finding and we was told to always follow the testing schedule when fault finding.
My lecturer pointed out that I was doing R1+RN when it's actually not actually one of the tests.
I questioned why because...
Hi All, this is regarding cable sizing and protective device selection in a switchboard. I'm very new to the British standards, kindly help me out to understand the basics in the attached schedule.
1) What is Id?
2) What is Igt end of line?
3) What is I2t start of line? Why is it calculated...
Hi all, I'm hoping someone could give me advice about a sutuation.
A couple of years ago I had a property fully rewired, no issues with the job and I paid the electrician in full. Job done.
Once I'd paid I received an automated NAPIT Desktop email titled "Your Certificate". I mistakenly assumed...
hi guys,
Seen on the circuit details schedule in a DB on our site, someone had inserted Zs values for the circuits as follows.
16a C type breaker as 1.44 ohms
10a C type breaker as 2.30 ohms
80a C type breaker as 0.28 ohms
I believe he’s calculated Zs by doing (in the case of 16amp c...
