EICR failed missing trunking?

Former Community Member
Former Community Member

Hi,



I’ve just had an EICR done last week, One item I do not understand and would need an electrician or someone to help please. the EICR report says “MISSING TRUNKING WITH WIRES NOT SUPPORTED C2 SHED.” The cable is clipped on the wood wall in the shed. There are no exposed wires. And the shed is not on escape routes. Does cable need to be in trunking in order to comply with the electrical wire regulation? Is the code 2 correct for this situation?  please see photo.1ff9527a633c65202618bef88f7b0919-original-shed.jpg



Thank you for help

    Are your guys really going to go in and tidy up a landlords electrical installation for them? There is a level of reasonable service that goes without saying, but, well you know what the but is.


    The original poster has been given some help, it has been pointed out to him that his installation is ####, it also does not comply with the regulations and it needs sorting out. But in all reality the original poster should be able to see that without having to be told..


    There’s absolutely no reason why the person preparing the report should be expected to fo the remedial work either paid or unpaid, neither is the any reason they should have a box of clips or mini trunking with them. Whilst we are at it, meter guys only found out what meter tail clips are a couple of years ago, they hardly have much experience of clipping cables it’s a new fangled idea to them that came in along with Smart Meters.


    For  the umpteenth time, the cable is not secured in any way whatsoever, it is not good enough.
