EICR Valid?

Hello,

I recieved an EICR for my Private Rented property from the landord. However, the post code of the address is wrong. Is the EICR still valid? It was done over a year ago, so Is it allowed to be corrected via just changing the post code or do the whole electrics need to be retested/inspected?

    Although it does say it is a visual report …

    I don't think that that will do.

    Chapter 65 refers to inspection and testing (my emphasis), but more importantly, R.3 of the ESSPRS Regulations 2020 requires that the installation be inspected and tested.

    I might add that for a small domestic installation, a 20% sample is not adequate.
