problem landlord

[Doomed]

Im trying to keep up with paper work from my hospital bed just using my mobile, but I could do with a few pointers to do with a problem landlords inspection.
Did the work via an estate agent (we do all thier work) but this particular landlord has kicked off and called us disreputable and trying to generate more work via the EICR when he claims that 10 years ago he had a electrician make sure it was all OK.
The only C2's we listed that need fixing was that the immersion thermastat did not have a thermal cut out and should be replaved and that one pendant in a cupboard had old single insulated fabric flex drop and should be changed.
Oh, and he was not happy that we said some of the wiring was up to 50 years old (multicored tinned copper cable, late 60's to early 70's I believe) as the flat was converted in the late 80's so 'it can't be older'

As I have no easy access to the our and building regs can someone post me ant relavant reg numbers or links to support our C2's please that I can then forward to the estate agent.

Many thanks.

(I should be out of hospital by the wekend, but i'm trying to keep on top of things)
(and i'm also a bit bored.....)

Does the provision of an overtemp cutout in the immersion heater fall under bs7671?

As far as I know it doesn't and therfore isn't a concern of the EICR and so shouldn't be coded at all.

maybe not, but i would certainly put a comment on the EICR or even on the invoice,, firstly
to advise client that it's a safety issue, and secondly as a CYA.
