I agree with Risteard here, the age af installation has nothing to do with it.

For a start there is no requirement in bs7671 for rcd protection for lights.
So I'm assuming that were talking about cables buried in walls <50mm without mechanical protection etc in which case it's a code 3.
 
thanks for your input everyone. i know the estate agent is a joke! maybe even an annoying other spark has gone in there and had a look and tried to be difficult! all i know is the fusebox has rcd on the sockets and not on the lights, so by them saying it wasnt and isnt up to standard regs is a joke. what do you think is the best thing to say so i can explain to them and give them peace of mind that its all ok?

its a code c3 which i put as an improvement anyway, the email was theartening saying I myself would have pay for the fusebox as its not up to current standard ha!

...a particularly ideal opportunity for you to visit "in person",and allow the sender to reiterate his thoughts orally,a method which religiously provides satisfaction for oneself ...

...An estate agent...issuing "thearts"? ...it's enough to give you the 'ump...and we can't have that,can we? :43:
