Hi all, my father in law has a rental property that was completely rewired and with new split load CU five years ago. The installation is now due an inspection. Will the fact that the CU is plastic constitute a "fail"?
The best I can suggest to you is to ask your dodgy landlord mates to get their Installation works done to standard in the first instance, then there would not be the need for all this faffing about with consultants wanting to regularise everything after the event with an EICR. That is not what an EICR is for and the new rental law is not saying regularise with an EICR.
For someone who claims to have taught 2391, I am alarmed that you have to ask about limitations to inspections. It seems you want a one size fits all of "no limitations".
If I have sight of a Report with no limitations, the first thing I suspect is a drive by or a blue peter style "satisfactory report", usually with every inspection box ticked and every box in the schedules with some random number in it. So David, if you are convinced that rental EICR should be conducted erroneously as initial verification, please keep it to yourself as it is not helpful.
A nice simple answer to " what limitations are reasonable?"
The ones that you agreed with the client in advance in writing.
