Is it correct 411.3.2.2

Ziggie
Max disconnection ...shall be applied to final circuits with a rated current not exceeding 

1. 63A with one or more socket-outlets, AND

2. 32 A supplying only fixed connected current-using equipment.


Example 32A with at least one socket with plugs.


condition 1 is satisfied

condition 2 is not satisfied


The “and” implies both need to be satisfied.


is this true?

    I agree - they're not conditions (boolean expressions) to be logically-ANDed, they're simply two lists things to which the requirement applies.

    Same as in the rental regs Part 1;
    “qualified person” means a person competent to undertake the inspection and testing required under regulation 3(1) and any further investigative or remedial work in accordance with the electrical safety standards;"

    On first reading I thought you had to be competent to do both, but it is really a list, according to NICEIC. 

    Edit; Domestic installers like me aren't deemed competent by NICEIC to do EICRs
