Landlord electrical safety certificate

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"?

  • Again, thank you everyone who has had an input. It does make me wonder whether "the Regulations" are actually fit for purpose if you can ask a, supposedly, simple question like is a plastic CU allowable in a rental property and it generates 75 responses and none of them are definitive! If the collective brainpower and experience on this forum can't give an answer then what hope for Joe Average Sparky?
