eicr codes anyone

[mcm]

Hi all just carried out a eicr on a Chinese restraint. Below are what I found and the codes I would give any other suggestions would be appreciated. NO BONDING TO GAS OR WATER C2, NO SUPPLEMENTRY BONDING TO PIPEWORK NO RCD PRESCENT C2, NO EARTH ON METAL LIGHT FITTINGS C2, NO SLEEVINMG TO SWITCH LIVES C3, NO GROMMENTS TO BACK BOXES C3, NO RING FINAL CONTUNITY TO SOCKETS CIRCUIT ON A 32AMP MCB C2, JOINT BOX OUTSIDE STANDARD JB NOT IP RATED C2, LIGHTING CIRCUIT IN 1.0MM ON 16MCB C2, SOCKET SUPPLIED OFF LIGHTING CIRCUIT SUPPLYING A FRIDGE C2, SURFACE SOCKET BOX CRACKED ABLE TO GET FINGERS UP INSIDE BOX C1, NO EARTH SLEEVING C3, SOCKET SPURED FROM A SPUR ON 32AMP RING MAIN C2, NO GROMMET ON METAL GLAD SOCKET C3, TOILET LIGHTING OFF RING MAIN NO VISIABLE SIGN OF A SPUR IN CIRCUIT C2, PENDANT LIGHT FLEX MISSING OUTER SHEATH AT ENTRY TO FITTING C2. NO WARNING LABELS C3. Any suggestions would be great.

Also forgot to mention a shed supply to a cu is spurred of ring main no 13amp spur in 2.5mm t+e C2?

 

[oldtimer]

No RCD C2 why

 

[telectrix]

as OT saida C3 except if use outside is probable or special location electrics with no supp. bonding. and i'd C3 for the pendant flex.

Same as oldtimer said why C2, It's a 3

Seems all good there chief

as OT saida C3 except if use outside is probable or special location electrics with no supp. bonding. and i'd C3 for the pendant flex.

All pipe work in the bathroom is not cross bonded and the no rcd protection to all circuits within the bathroom would you say this warrants a C2?

 

[ayjay]

it may not need crossbonding test if theres any resistance betwixed the copper pipework

would you say ayjay that the shed cu supply taken from the ring main with out a fuse spur would be a c2? thanks

It is a c2

Absence of supplementary bonding is a c3 in a bathroom if there is additional protection (30mA rcd) and the zs to the MET is less than 1667ohms from the pipework .both these must be met for the exclusion of supp bonding.

Those Chinese restraints can be tricky to test !!! Getting them off is even trickier !!

I have seen that, though the inspector had told me it was at the clients request as their maintenance systems in place were set up for the C1-C4 system.
Not sure on how this would fare in a court of law, as it obviously contravenes a NON statutory document.

'Grommets' - there is no requirement for them, so why say there is? If there is damage to the cable on entry to the box, then it is different, but you cannot say 'no grommets' without stating why, and what Reg.

Toilet light off RFC? Only a problem if the cable cannot carry the current, but if only one luminaire, then maybe 433.3.1 will apply anyway?
