Coding, basically!

Assume a scenario where everything else in a domestic property is satisfactory but with the following exceptions -

Consumer unit is plastic but not in an escape route.

Consumer unit is MK 16th ed split load, with single RCD protection on one side but with the mcbs replaced by RCBOs for all circuits on the other side.

No surge protection present, and all other devices function correctly.

Tails are 16mm but there a 60A fuse in the cut out - verified during a meter change recently.


So, what, if any coding should be applied? I am at a complete loss to fail it in any respect.

  • I agree with Zoom that 5 years is too long a period IMHO for holiday lets. But every change of "tenant" would be OTT,.

    Maybe say 12 months might be a good idea.

    But the visual careful quick look by a responsible person is the main order of the at the end of each holiday stay.

    In other words someone who knows what to look for by training/experience etc.

    CYA and do what is reasonable. You could still fail to catch all situations but you could well see most things.

    It all depends on what is reasonable in all circumstances instead of doing nothing at all.
