high impedance on 25 on circuits 2 and 3
unable to locate cooker circuit
unable to locate water bond -no continuity to earth
100 ma TD main switch
unable to locate heating circuit
wrong size mcb on cooker circuit 40A
wrong size mcb on shower circuit with 6mm cable 50A
all these have code c2
im a bit annoyed since..
we no longer have an electric shower it runs off the combi boiler,
we have a gas hob, and the fan oven is rated low enoug for the kitchen ring,
the cooker circuit serves nothing
Aye, could be mateMaybe high impedance on ZS.
i hired this company off mybuilder.com, for a landlord cert, eicr. they were cheapest quote,
Oh dear! Not everyone on there is bad though. The earth bonds are supposed to be visible and accessible.i hired this company off mybuilder.com
sorry what is Zs? you could be right ive read it wrong as 25
i hired this company off mybuilder.com, for a landlord cert, eicr. they were cheapest quote, but im getting the distinct feeling they are trying to pad it out.
i actually said to the bloke when he was here sucking his teeth, why cant the mcb for non existant cooker and shower just be disconected and if any wires going to them, cut them well back. apparrently he was happier just to fail it...
im still unclear on the watermain earth though, do you have to absolutely see the connection on the water main within ?? mm of the stopcock to "pass "?
i have to say thoughi realy apprciate all the advice and no, im not going to peru
landlord cert, eicr.

Says it all really. Buy cheap, buy twice.they were cheapest quote,
seems strange there is no hard and fast rule on the water earth, one persons c2 is anothers c3.. can this be right?
ok, i know this is not true test but just to stir it up, ive just stuck my multimeter neg in the earth prong of a scoket and other side to kitchen tap,: 4.5 ohms, sounds pretty connected to me and imagine you too. thats what i mean, they are taking the proverbial, ok, maybe they couldnt find the bond, but thats no reason to say its not earthed when it obviously is, right?
Please stop poking things in sockets mate.ok, i know this is not true test but just to stir it up, ive just stuck my multimeter neg in the earth prong of a scoket
