    But an electrician preparing an EICR must raise a list of concerns and list the non-compliances with the current requirements of the Wiring Regulations.

     

    Don't forget that according to BS7671 definitions;  a “non-compliance” is a “non-conformity that may give rise to danger".

    Geoff. I would have thought that a non compliance is something which does not comply. 

    One example wrong colour coding 

    So there are two parts to a non-compliance according to the definition:

    a, It is a non-conformity

    which

    b, may give rise to danger.

    So just green earth sleeving is not likely to give rise to danger but is a  non-compliance.

    Or cables coloured with red and black conductor insulation.
