Eicr no cpc continuity

[cliffed]

Remedials On Eicr,no cpc continuity,checked all sockets,still no luck.
Gotta be a junction box,but near impossible to know where.
Any ideas

Probably under a floor or above a ceiling

Break each cpc at each socket, test each leg to the next socket until you narrow down roughly where the break is. Frustrating and time consuming but the only way. I once had a ring with 5 JB's under the floor with all the cpc's cut off. DIYer, ring was fine till he got hold of it.

What code would you give it.
Maybe changing it to radial circuit,if possible

crowbar could come handy .have ever watched the film mouse hunt,that is what it is going to be.

Cheers for that,it’s gonna be real hassle,it looks like kitchen area.

Third bedroom, just inside the door under the floor...

Wander lead it as you’ve already had the sockets off you will know which are spurs....The highest two readings of the sockets that are part of the ring are likely to be the two sockets either side of the break.

Ok ,thanks.
I’m thinking do I need this crap,it’s like,what,no earth continuity...I hate Eicr’s

I don't want to sound pi%$y but if you dont know the code then should you be doing the EICR? It's not your job to rectify it, just to report it and code it surely?

Check under plinths and behind units first. Worst case is that it's under tiles or in plaster. Could be anywhere to be honest with a kitchen.

I amazes me when spark come on the forum and ask things like that ,maybe they think we all have cyristal balls , now let me look in the future , o their it is in the cornor of that room .

It’s a code 2,wanted to know what others were thinking,I’ve been asked to do the remedials....worst luck.
I also do know what I’m doing..thank you.
