What code-PIR

[johnelectrical]

PIR's only require unsatisfactory for code 1, so if everything else is OK, that is only minor code 2's I would consider; providing the items identified by the PIR are dealt with without delay a satisfactory outcome would be acceptable

I believe that is why the new EICR is being introduced with only 3 codes.

If the report contains a C1 or C2 then it is a straight forward unsatisfactory condition!!

At present the decision is down to the person carrying out the PIR which has over the years caused alot of debate.

So only a few weeks to get up to date with the new forms!

Others would say code 1 or code 2 should be deemed unsatisfactory. Can something that 'requires improvement' be called satisfactory?

... and I fully understand that the 13A 1363 accessory SHOULD be ok providing the plug fuse prevents more than 13A being drawn but I still don't like it. ...

Oh come on, this is pure twaddle, how on earth do think a piece of fusible wire of negligible resistance (BS1362 fuse) in a BS1363 plug "prevents more than 13A being drawn" ? Any BS1362 fuse can clear a fault current of up to 6kA at 230V.
