bloody 'ell.

Various details missing there, which should not be missing IMO. Namely end to end values on some circuits and R1R2 values. Limitations to the testing is acceptable, but in this instance some important potential issues have not been either deduced or verified to be OK.

I have never completed a inspection and test of a installation without at least one observation being made (in reference to the second picture). Was there a page before the second photo that had any observations perhaps.

Who did the testing - a small or large company or one man band? And of of curiosity how much was paid.

Oh, and the Zs values should be recorded too. Poor.

Agree very poor eicr,how much Dare I ask

5 sec. disconnection time for lights, 0.4 secs. for circuits > 32A. what a plonker.

Hello All

local sparks to me, full contractor, this is from the solicitor to my friend buying the house, I said not worth paper written on, he contacted estate agent they mentioned it says satisfactory & client of theirs have paid for the test.
I am now going in Monday to do periodic for property.

I did not show the rest but least I say we have TNCS down but with a figure 0.80 for the ze inquired so says it all

 

[marc8]

5 bed house, not saying impossible but 200M ohms L/N IR testing find hard to believe myself but we shall see I will post up my results when I have done

 

[Startinez]

Well that's a lot of / instead of values...

 

[Octopus]

Can't wait to see some real test results and compare them to the fiction above

That's some bad testing I bet the actual results are nothing like that haha.

Got to love this types of testing, worked for a company before (only as a trainee so working with a sparky) when doing DB upgrades who said just do a Ze and a Zs on sockets and rcd test that's it the supervisor in office will fill in the rest. also if there is a link between lighting which causes rcd to trip just put both lighting on same rcd not even try to find the problem. Safe to say I wasn't there long.
