Landlord electrical safety certificate

Grumpy
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"?

    Inspection needs understanding and judgment, would you like a Doctor who had only learned a first-aid book? I think not.


    Indeed. The 2391 is a pale shadow of its former self and the 18th Edition exam has a pass mark of 60% with the book sitting in front of the candidate! It would surprise you how many candidates just about make the grade. If I was having my appendix out and the surgeon told me that he had only got 60% in his taking out appendix exam, I would be up and off that table pronto!
