EICR Codes help for new Landlord.

Hi. I hope you are all well and keeping busy in these strange times. I look after a ladies house who has had to move back abroad and now needs to let the property out and so she has had an EICR done which has come back with saying it needs a total rewire for few grand. 


What I want to know is can I ask info on here about the codes he has put and if reasonable.


I don't won't to upset anyone by second guessing another trades persons work but I would like an idea if this is right or not?


Thanks you


Regards Lee

    The picture looks fine, but what is on it does not.


    I use NAPIT Desktop for EICRs.


    When you work through the schedule of inspections as you code items it brings up a dialogue box containing a description of the issue and references to regulations which if you accept is added to the observations sheet, then you can edit the observation sheet to make it specific to the installation you are testing and inspecting.


    So when reading the observations on that sheet you have shown in the photograph I can see that there is not a reference number telling you which item on the schedule of inspections the observation is describing or     which Wiring Regulation is applicable.


    Some of the observations look highly dubious, can you add photos of the schedule of inspections so we can see if we can spot what has been observed by comparing the schedule with the observation.
