You can't have 'standard' it depends on agreed specification with the client.
 
I know most differ but in reality most requests i get are "can you do a test please" all the client want to do is to asatain the condition of the property. So you would have a standard limitaions, for example does not include cables routing through walls, through voids and lofts etc.
 
Here look this is a sample from a PIR sent to me by an estate agent;
Supplier's fuse sealed, cannot inspect internally
10% of accessories inspected internally.
No design information available.​
Some points inaccessible due to obstruction.
This inspection has been carried out in accordance with BS7671 : 2008 (IEE Wiring Regulations). Cables concealed within
trunking and conduits, or cables and conduits concealed under floors, in roof spaces and generally within the fabric of the​
building or underground have not been inspected.
 
The text starting "Cables concealed...." is standard but not inspection percentages etc. they are the inspectors decision in conjunction with any agreed specification.

For us, 10% inspection would only apply to a relatively new installation showing no defects, as defects are found, the inspection percentage should be increased.
