Inspection & testing

Electromob · Sep 21, 2015

Hi all, I'm about to take up an inspection on a 3 phase property all other circuits are in Normal wiring , and The lighting circuits are on smart home system. How is the smart home system tested ? As I imagine they're gonna be equipment liable to get damaged while testing. And don't really fancy a law suit. :wink_smile:
Your advice would be appreciated.
Thanks a million in advance.

Disconnect where possible.

L/N (connected together) E IR and possibly depending on what equipment stepped down to 250v

He's saying (basically) don't stick 500VDC across L and N. Daz

Is this an EIC, or EICR?
Is the lighting system Modular?

It's an installation report. Design & built by a German company. But they can't give a certificate as they're not nic Eic or any of the Like so they can't sign it off.
