EICR - No SPD Coded C2

Former Community Member

Hi, I have recently had a couple of EICRs performed for rental properties and on the report the inspector has put the following coding of C2 as there is no SPD fitted. 

“Inspection Schedule Item 4.20: Confirmation of indication that SPD is functional (651.4) is in a potentially dangerous condition. Urgent remedial action is required. ”  - C2

The consumer units are standard 18th edition purchased at screwfix within the last 3 months with both RCD & MCB protection but with no SPD's.  When I questioned this with the electrician that inspected, he told me that new legislation had recently come in that SPD's must now be fitted. Is this correct?

    You have to wonder what the thought process was if any to come up with C2 on a domestic condition report for lack of a SPD. Refund and start again would be the best policy.
