Extent of Electrical Installation Covered by this Report.

Zoomup

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.

    No Andy, I think you are being misled. An EIC for a new circuit is obviously fine, but when you study for 2391 you will understand that the whole installation is always included. Your job is to decide if A PROPERTY is safe or not, not some part of it, which is useless to man or beast. Ok bed 1 is safe, but I have no idea about the rest, clearly does not match the rented property intent.

    Then I'd wonder why JPEL/64 thought it necessary to include a ‘Extent of the electrical installation covered by this report’ section in the model EICR form?
