Eicr codes help

[demkap]

hi there,

would appreciate advise please...
im carrying out a condition report on a church and have found a number of interesting issues. i found quite a few DBs with asbestos in the fuse carriers... would you give this a C2 code even though they aren't being disturbed?

also found a 40amp breaker with a 6mm and a 2.5mm cable going into it.. what code would you advise for this?

also a ring circuit with a 3rd cable going into the 32amp breaker... i was thinking a C2?

emergency lights dont come on under fault conditions?

no rcd protection throughout but not likely to have equipment plugged in outside C3?

metal conduit being used as a CPC but i seem to be getting good continuity readings?

single socket having a ZS of 8ohms!? why would this be the case aswell... bad earth?

much appreciated

I would have taken the socket off the wall and tested at the terminals...

will do that tomorrow... but then if it is still high.. what would you recommend?

Have you measured the Ze?

Whats the Earthing arrangement?

There is more than element to a loop test! Could also be a poor line connection or a combination of both. Also as already stated test at the terminals to eliminate contact resistance.

OP, please don't take this the wrong way, but should you really be doing Periodic Inspections?
Some of your queries are very simple - for example, possibly giving a Code to a conduit'ed accessory - really?
You should know all of the answers to your queries if you had the relevant experience, please, learn a bit more before you offer to do any more, as it is, you are coming across as very inexperienced, and it woudlnt look good if a Client started querying your assumptions.

But on the other hand there's no harm in seeking a little reassurance and guidance from fellow electricians, none of us know it all ! [With possibly one or two exceptions on here ]
