EICR Basic Insulation on Meter Tails

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
Hi Guys n Girls

Im currenlty doing EICRs for a local authourity.

Basic Insulation od meter tails of more than 15mm showing. So coding it as C2

Client Compliance Manager is saying that I should rectify? But i thought it was ilegal to tamper with DNO equipment? So Im uncomforttable doing this . Compliance manager said he will issue an email stating that it is ok to do this? That also cannot be legal?

What are my options, and where do I stand legally?

    Are the tails before or after the meter ? If after they belong to the end user. If before they may either be DNO, or part of the building network depending on ownership.

    In any case, assuming it really is a C2, then assuming you are proposing to do anything more more than add a turn of tape, which is about all that is possible with the power on, then. you need to clarify how it can all be made safe to work on, and that probably will involve DNO equipment.


    However, if it is basic insulation inside a meter box with a key  or other tool to open it, then maybe it is not a C2.

    regards Mike.
