BS7671;2018 Minor works certificates.

Are you all organised and have a supply of the new certificates to hand?


What do you actually think of them?

  • Agreed, there can be a marked difference between x1 and x5 test results from a 30 mA RCD, but both of those tests can be completed with a standard RCD tester.


    Standard RCD testers don’t have the option to test at x2 which I have been told by RCD manufacturers and tester manufacturers does not matter, as you don’t need to do it anyway if you confirm a higher rated RCD is within spec at x1.


    We can only do what we can do regards testing RCDs, but we can write all the test results on a certificate, which may be five entries rather than one.
