Hi people,
I have very recently started doing some t & I, and I have a domestic installation that I have completed in an Victorian basement flat, basically a re-wire all but for the lighting circuits where I have utilized the old wiring (after making some insulation resistance tests and good visual inspection). NB. I could not gain access to the top floor flat in order to lift the floor: also, it's a listed building.
Now I am looking to fill-in an Electrical Installation Cert, and I wondered how I qualify this? Is it a 'new installation' or is it an 'alteration to existing'? ie. 'extent of installation covered by this certificate' - I would like to include in the tests ALL circuitry including lighting circuits - but do they qualify??
Also, proximity of gas meter to the consumer unit is only about 10 inches. I did not change this because of the cable/wall aperture and space restrictions. Can I conform/tick to the 'proximity of non-electrical services' box (because in effect it is not a totally new installation?) or do I need to qualify this somehow?
Many Thanks!
