I have just bought a new house and am looking at the electrical installation certificate. It is dated 17/06/19 but the certificate is done to 17th edition. I thought the 18th Edition came into force in Jan 2019? The only thing that highlighted this was my wife tried to switch the extractor fan on in the kitchen and it wouldn't work. Upon further investigation she found bare/not terminated cables inside the extractor. Nicely tested I thought and really safe.
 
Works started prior to but completed after the 18th edition only has to comply to the regs at time of when the works started.
With regards to any faults found, you can raise these/this with the house builder first for them to sort and if that does not happen you can go down the NHBC route
I would personally report the "live" not connected cable to the NICEIC with the registered company name but they will probably do nothing about it
