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

    Yes, it is not good enough, it needs fixing. C3. Open end etc. C1.


    Yes, Chris, the exams for Doctors may be slightly easier now, but one is expected to take more of them. My Daughter MRCP, now Oncology Registrar, so now the Radiologists exams, another metre pile of textbooks to learn, more exams at £1000 per time, etc. Fortunately, she does not fail any (yet) but even so, the path is very far from smooth for many, who have to try and try again. I really don't see why electricians whinge so much, they earn more money in the first 15 years than a junior doctor, and do not have to pay for 5 years at £9000 a time for University either. A 15% pass rate to find the best does not seem unreasonable to me, and you can always learn some more and practice the practical, and try again. The best part of the training is definitely the 80 hours or so a week on shifts which usually include the Weekends, plus being on call (which usually happens too), the rest of the time. Being an electrician is a hard life!
