Extent of Electrical Installation Covered by this Report.

A potential customer has just handed me a copy of an E.I.C.R. The reason given for the  extent of the report is:

“Consumer Unit Only.”

The report seems to be genuine regarding the information provided. The reason for it is that the house is let to a tenant. A basic Test Schedule is included.

    What's wrong with that, and why no responses over 3 hours? Were you all watching the footie? ?

    I am not quite sure why you would want a schedule of test results other than to list the circuits and their OCPDs.

    This I&T would only lead to a recommendation for a CU change if the CU itself were defective. Being pre-17th Edn in my view may be non-compliant, but not defective so that's only a C3. Whether circuits were < 50 mm deep and not RCD protected, for example, wouldn't be part of this I&T. 

    It's not really an I&T of the installation, but full marks to the landlord for creativity.
