Nothing is effective as a method of protection if tenants start fiddling with electrical installations. You said as much yourself really, in your post: "even though the circuits have a CPC I find un-earthed light fittings and dimmer switches ". Those fiddled-with metal Class 1 light fittings and dimmer switches are even more dangerous than a Class 2 fixture.
