Period inspection interval

I am just modifying my condition report templates. I am going to include the the requirements of 653.4 which requires an explanation to support the period determined to the next inspection. That requirement doesn’t seem to have been included in the model form in Appendix 6. Is it included in the NICEIC, NAPIT etc forms?

seems to me that is entirely reasonable to require an explanation as it would, at least for work premises, have cost as well as legal implications.

  • You can have a cable that has been chewed by vermin such as rats resulting in a live copper conductor being exposed, inspection identifies it as clearly dangerous, a code one defect.


    But it can easily pass all the required testing including insulation testing.


    Therefore inspection should always trumps testing, however testing may identify something that is not cleary visible, so should not be omitted.
