Testing a new garage suppy

[Scott Jacob]

I understand that this will require a new installation cert as I’m adding a new circuit from my main consumer unit out to a garage consumer unit via a 6mm SWA cable.

How do I add this to the test cert as a new supply. If it was a cooker supply for example I’d just add it as cooker put the relavent MCB info in and do the tests.

On the first section of the cert talking about that board ratings and earths etc Iv obv put Down the main c/u details. Where do I reference the new garage c/u and would I issue a separate certificate and simply put garage supply on my original cert with that words ‘see cert 2 for details?

I would produce a cert with two boards and corresponding schedules of results.

The first being the main DB, that would list just the new circuit (and if appropriate the associated RCD) whilst the second would list the new garage DB and it's circuits.

And part P if you are in England or Wales

If you are, the tech support dept. will run you through completing an EIC with a CU supplying another CU, via their on line software.

I would do the same but reference the exisiting circuits on the first DB as ‘Existing Circuit’ and N/A all the boxes.

According to his other thread he is a scheme member so I am not sure why he cannot put together a rudimentary Certificate.

ALL the boxes?

 

[Nigel]

ALL the boxes?

On the existing circuits yes.

 

[Octopus]

On the existing circuits yes.

That's what I thought you meant

In these cases I put "used" where there are existing OCPD's and "spare" where there are spaces for additional OCPD's and obviously a full set of test results for the new circuit(s) I've installed.

 

[westward10]

I use one line for the applicable circuit, so if it is circuit 6 that goes under line one and nothing else.

Certsures on-line certs, have a 'not worked on' as drop down option on circuits, not worked on.

I would issue new cert containing 2 boards. The first cert...all original circuits marked as "not tested (or whatever your dropdown list contains) and new circuit as "sub-Main to Garage" with results as applicable.
2nd cert containing all garage circuit details/results.
