Would it be a good idea to add the fact that the periodic inspection and test resulted in a PASS or FAIL on this label? Should it be redesigned to allow for this?

perspicacious:
and for the privately owned house where a visiting builder wants to plug in an electrical cement mixer in the garden, or a hair dresser wants to use their own hair drier in the house or the mobile dog groomer wants to plug in their extension lead for their van's electrical equipment. It ain't just work related at an employer's premises.
Hence me writing in that post:
I wouldn't think much of the ethics of my host if they allowed me in as a visitor with a "FAIL" (sic) sticker on the CU.........
No matter how much I wanted some building work done, my hair done, my xxxx machine wants grooming, do these vanity projects entitle me to let these take priority over those visitors' safety?

As a non expert, a householder may be unaware of the state of their electrics. But an independent expert that has affixed an informative dated label to your consumer unit that can be inspected by visitors may confirm electrical safety or otherwise. A label that just says that it should just be inspected and tested says nothing apart from that.
