I have not done an EICR since these forms came. I'm still used to PIR forms.
What code for down lights with out fire hoods?
Thanks

Download this from the esc site.

I work with guys that will code 2 anything fire rating relating, no fire hoods and holes in the back of fuseboards cut into plasterboard walls, but this PDF clearly states that on some walls and ceilings that aren't fire rated that no action is required at all.

Hope this helps

Well it's a worth a read so he can answer his query :)

I dismay doing EICRs, the amount of fuseboards with the backs hacked out of them and our company policy is to either change the board or spray in fire foam, regardless if its a fire rated wall or not. Nothing like creating work is there lol

well sounds like it's your companies policy to ripp people off! IMO that sounds appalling, you should't follow that policy, just bs7671 send common sense!
