I am sympathetic to the view which states that if the installation fully complied with regulations at the time, and still do - that is, it is in good condition - then I would deem it to be safe for continued use despite the lack of the fulfillment of any of today's requirements.
The inspection is carried out for the purpose of investigating whether or not this is the case, and not for the purpose of deliberately failing a perfectly safe installation simply because it lacks RCD protection or the like which is required by the regulations of today.
"Needs Improvement" would be my only comment.
If the zealous rivet-counting jobsworth nutcases are let loose on this, we'll end up ripping stuff out which is only a year or so old. At a time when our leaders and highly paid lobby groups are urging us to 'go green' how wasteful is that?
