New EICR - "No earth bond to some socket boxes: C2"?

I have a new EICR which has the observation "No earth bond to some socket boxes: C2".


I have checked continuity between all faceplate mounting screws and the earth of the socket. They are all connected, i.e. the back box is at least earthed by the screw if not with a tail internally (I have not removed the front plates of any sockets). The earth of each socket is connected to the ring.


While it is best practice, is it a requirement of the regulations that a tail is connected internally?


many thanks

  • So long as one is a fixed metal lug, no problem.  You would be hard pushed to find a back box with both as adjustable lugs anyhow.
