EICR classifcation remedial work form

[Sparky_marky2]

Hi, just been called to do remedial work on a electrical installation condition report to correct some C2's.
My question is, is there a form or document I can give to note down the C2's I've corrected?
Thanks in advance,
Marky

Why would you issue a cover letter, whatever that is and an EIC for works which at the very least require an Minor Works. If anyone offered me a cover letter it would be the last work I ever offered to them.

Quite a bit of Northern Ireland Housing Exec work requires one, depending on on the fold. Letter-Certs-Invoice then a longish wait for payment.

If remedials are across multiple circuits could either issue multiple Minor Works, or an EIC detailing the works. There is a multiple circuit Minor Works one floating about as well. Whatever floats your boat.

Hi Marky, I usually fill out MWC or EIC with reference to the report. I also email any notes or dismiss remedials not needed. However, I have had the odd letting agent wanting a report with satisfactory on it. I explain my certs will be fine or I will charge them to carry out my own report.

These letting agent always want something for nothing to cover their backsides.
Agree with you if they want a satisfactory certificate, explain to them that you will need to do your own EICR from scratch at an extra cost, and any further dangers you find will be noted on that cert, that'll make the burger cough a bit, bloody leeches.

This is yet another glaring issue with the regs we work to .......... as far as I know there is nothing in BS 7671 about this ...........

A MWC for a broken back box replacement? Surely not...!

I would issue what I felt was appropriate to the remedial works carried out. I would not be averse to using a cover letter to state Items x, y and z of the EICR dated blah have been fixed/remedied/sorted.
I often state that the cover letter and any new schedule of test results should be appended to the original report. BS7671 isn't clear on what to do in my view, but as long the end result makes sense I don't see a problem.
It depends on the nature of the issues found, and they can obviously be very varied.

I recently had multiple lost CPC issues on an install with around seven class I lights. Had to re-terminate four of the lights to get the CPC good again. My cover letter stated the work I did, the r1r2, the earth loop, and IR tests. I think that is sufficent personally.

Old thread I know, but surely cover letters for things such as face places missing screws and through boxes with no lids is better than a MWC?

You have a lot of notes on your invoices

You have a lot of notes on your invoices

Invoices are auto populated by Quickbooks ....... so adding a small note is far, far better than creating a pointless MWC

How does the inspector being unable to access a camera or the car park lights warrant a code?
To my mind, that should either be a Limitataion or code against the inspector for not supplying access equipment.
Also a little concerned that the inspector is unable to find a circuit.
What’s the recommendation, have an EICR done?

To my mind, done of the real defects would require certification on rectification. There is no alteration or addition, just replacement of existing equipment.
