Downgrading mcb or adding rcd

[joehat]

For adding an rcd or download grading an mcb for various reasons I've always used a mwc, is this correct or do I need a EIC as this seems alot of work for this?

For those who are unsure as to the meaning of 'minor works', here's the definition from BS7671:
"Minor works. Additions and alterations to an installation that do not extend to the provision of a new circuit."
As such any electrical work (including the replacement of a CU/DB) which does not include a new circuit is by definition, 'minor works'.

I think your last sentence is incorrect.

Not really, only took me ten minutes to whack out that post.

Lol, not according to the definition.

Just asked my senile old neighbour this question and after wiping the dribble from my hands she pointed to a Minor Works.

Your neighbour is quite astute then, in judgement of characters.

I note BS7671 doesn't define alteration, addition or new circuit, so does not clarify the degree of distinction in its own description. In other words, its own definition is lacking in precision.
