Well i did my first EICR last week { Well watched as a Competent person did it } there was 7 to test 2 sockets to replace & 2 light fittings to replace it took us 3 hours to do but remember he was instructing me all the way through on a small 2 up 2 down house but it was really great to actually see it for real as i've had to learn at home on my own at home due to lack of funds from online tuition so it was great for me to see how easy it was compared to the complicated written instruction i've had to follow so far i've passed my part P { Buildings regulations for electricians } my Health & Safety exam for my ECS Card & my 2382 17th edition exam that i failed by 10% a few moths ago. I've been invited out to do some more testing this week but my Yellow 17th edition book has fallen to bits & i could do with a new one so anyone got one i can have that would be great anyway took the online test on this site today & got 55% Gutted onwards & upwards maybe HA HA

Hi Danny,
Pleased you enjoyed you EICR.

As for the big yellow book, you should be able to pick one up really cheap as the new 18th edition is in the pipeline so the 17th will be obsolete soon.
If your working with other sparks who have access to book I wouldn't bother getting one until the new blue book is out unless you really need to.

I'm impressed you got a full EICR done on 7 circuits in just 3 hours. It would take me a full 7-8 hour day to do an EICR without doing any work like replacing sockets and light fittings.

Curious to know how long it takes others to do an EICR.
