Hi Andy. Thanks for your help on this. Really appreciated. I have re-read the sections in the regs and they refer to mechanical strain, not mechanical protection as I had read it earlier too hastily.

There's no reference to Mechanical Strain in reg 416.

Well done Sherlock!
Who, apart from you even mentioned regulation 416??

I suggest you pay a little bit more attention before you go jumping in with silly comments

Bit of a goatish question, but at least he asked, and didn't just condemn the job and sell the customer a new fireproof cu like many would have done....

The irony of this thread (which I have only just read) is that the op wanted to code the clipping of the cables and was rightly lambasted for his decision
The coding of the cables would have been justified, had he picked up on "how" they have been clipped rather than "because" they were clipped

I would normally agree but to make a mistake on the simplest of issues warrant some of the responses. Especially if someone is paying him to do an accurate EICR. That customer deserves better.

Even I who likes to help rather than criticise think his understanding is shocking.

The guy doesn’t deserve a lynch mob though.

It was a simple question where he’s a little confused, a simple answer would suffice.... and maybe a couple of “agrees”...

Qualified or not, ongoing experience is a valuable asset
