NAPIT Certification Scheme napit code 2/3

C3 for me, in general.
Maybe we're getting to the point, though, if the property was wired to later 17th, C2 could come into it.....but in such a case it should be RCD protected anyway...so there's already a C2 for that. If you think about it, you could save an awful lot of C2's with an RCBO. As regards zones, why would you want to check them for an EICR?...unless the plaster's falling off the wall and showing things up.

That's why I put it on here as I couldn't understand

I don't believe that installation date should come into it. Assess the risk and code accordingly. And lack of RCD additional protection where now required cannot be given no recommendation code.

C2 in you’re opinion?

C2 in you’re opinion?

I certainly wasn't suggesting that! But was correcting someone who advised no code and someone else who suggested that a 17th Edition install should be C2 (implying that older installs shouldn't). It would be a C3 for me.

Agree with that statement

I'm not saying it should, Risty, I'm saying it could...as in pointing out the RCD requirement anyway. If I decided on a C2, it'd be a C2, be it prior to 17th or not.
I repeat, C3, generally.
