Hi guys whats your take of how many EICRs can be done properly in a day average of 5 to 8 circuits ranging from 1 bed flats to 3 bed houses?? This would also include travel and also doing any repairs whilst there?

Yes I've put a few sockets in kitchens and a few new fuse boards
You said 'most' of your work. You have obviously done notifiable work because of your earlier comments about the customer dealing with it.
I'm not sure what's notification and what's not ...I must admit I don't fully understand the rulesSo why say your work has been non notifiable then? It's hard work this.
it seems strange that I can change a socket in a lounge with no problem but can't change a socket in a kitchen without some odious requirement for firmsI'm not sure what's notification and what's not ...I must admit I don't fully understand the rules
Replacing something iAs most of my work is replacing damaged sockets and switches etc..some of which will be outside is this noticeable?
Brian if you came across a cracked socket in a kifchen and swapped it thats fine. If you then went and pulled in a 6mm cable from the DB to supply a cooker THAT is notifiable, if you were to swap a pendant that is fine if though whilst doing that you added in an extra light on a circuit that is non rcd protected not only is that now against regs but to then start altering the supply of said circuit by adding an rcd is notifiable.I'm not sure what's notification and what's not ...I must admit I don't fully understand the rules

Yes have an older copy...waiting for the price to come down to a sensible level@davesparks its quite apparent that he doesn’t have a copy of the Regs, certainly not an up to date one ?

Well yes they do reduce in price...the original price o found was about £95 but have seen them going for about £60 now on Amazon so heading in the right directionThe price doensy come down, it is what it is, and it is relatively cheap compared to other British standards documents.
How on earth do you carry out work or EICRs in compliance with the regulations if you do not have a copy of the current edition?
I can't imagine that the regulations have changed much since the last edition..I am given to understand that the latest is a more or less rewrite of the previous oneWell yes they do reduce in price...the original price o found was about £95 but have seen them going for about £60 now on Amazon so heading in the right direction
