Recommended checks before CU change

As most of you know I’ve only been qualified for just over a year and I’ve got a quote to do for a cu upgrade.


I know I’m nowhere experienced enough to do EICR’s yet, but what would you guys recommend I check/test before doing the cu upgrade and should I do these checks/tests at the quote stage?

    I might add that I cannot remember being taught on my course that rings could be tested at any point, but it is occasionally easier than in the CU where the tails may be short or at the back.


     



     




    I have seen that method in one of the NICEIC's training videos, as you say useful when all the cables are tucked behind the CU and it is not easy to identify each leg of the ring.
