CU change, submitted EIC but landlord wants eicr too?

[elsparko]

i was under the impression that a board change requires a eic as that is all that was altered and to be taken responsibility for?

im thinking the landlord is trying for a free eicr out of my boss, i certainly dont want the liability of the existing installation.

Not everyone who wants a quote for a CU upgrade is prepared to pay for an EICR beforehand.
And I'm not doing one for free in order to quote for a job I might not even get.

not suggesting doing eicr before, but part of the upgrade

After reading a few threads and being fairly new to these forums I've read a few threads where some of the members here would rather use MW over EICs especially when more than a few circuits are modified or altered in a installation.

It seems a little strange to me why someone would suggest doing mutiple MW when you can just do EIC.

if you are doing a small job like a added socket less s88t to put on a sheet like a EIC .

I agree that makes sense but if your working on more than a few. 4 or more circuits then to me it makes more sense to write a EIC and record the Information/results applicable to the work you have carried out.
