I am about to audit a property tested by a contractor.
on the report it has a C2 code but also states rectified, while we like a record of repairs and the previous code assigned, im not sure its correct to have a C2 on a satifactory EICR?

but not I hope to leave it as a C2 fault after that rectification..... which is what that form implies.
I know what was meant, but its not what it says...

I am going to take a leaf out of GK's book and ask how a court would interpret it. I cannot see it being that the C2 remains.
It appears that item 2, given a C3, has also been dealt with by installing an SPD. If so, should this item have also been given a code? if an SPD was installed by the person doing the eicr, it appears to not have an indication of its functionality. It is all a bit sloppy.
Item 3 could mean that the arcing was rectified as in arc rectification, which is a very clever observation.
Frankly, I am not sure what the second observation means. Even if an SPD has an indicator, how many people would go and lift the lid and check it?
I carry out hundreds of EICR’s per year for a large housing association, our certification is regularly checked by the governing bodies when they do there annual assessments and they are happy with this approach.
Thanks, that is useful to know, if rather surprising.
