    Electric test fail.

    Needs to be investigated properly before making any decisions. Could be 3 loose connections anywhere on the ring - so a simple split may be hard to achieve

    Electric test fail.

    I guess your best next step is get a clearer picture to see if the breaker has been changed and if it has ask for the EICR to be updated Lack of continuity is a C2

    I think that codebreakers could be used against sparks in court as their guidance is suspect to say the least. What a mess

    How tall is the bathroom ceiling / light. If it’s over 2.25 m then the ip rating is incorrect so it’s not a C2 A 10A mcb on 2.5 is not a C2 Could you post a photo of the CU?

    Exactly. The NAPIT crew should be ashamed of themselves. They do not up hold safety, they are ONLY interested in making money

    Electric test fail.

    What a ******* mess. JPEL/64 is a stitch up including OEMs with a vested interest to make changes for profits sake. I’ve sent in comments in the past and as far as I can tell they are ignored. All they need to do is send the draft to the Plain Speaking Society for comments - then act of...
