Videos of EICRs on Youtube

David Stone

I am interested in comments from anyone on the youtube videos, there are several purporting to show EICR procedures. As most know I am currently researching this, and am collecting data.

are of particular interest, ignore any comments I may have left, I want your comments.

 

Kind regards

    On the subject of condemning out of hand, older compliant installations, I look at it like this - 

    CAT 1.UNSAFE - A blatantly obvious fault, even to the village idiot, that a bare copper core showing through a cable or flex is very unsafe.

    CAT 2. SAFE - A older installation which complied when first constructed but does not now comply. Regs are not retrospective so if the install is defect-free then a Satisfactory must be given. 

    CAT 3. SAFER - A brand new installation which complies in all respects (for today only!)

    NOTE: The ‘CATS’ are mine and not the BS7671 classifications.
