[QUOTE="UNG, post: 543077, member: 8931"] As you are an apprentice I was thinking it would be more of a learning opportunity for yourself, I could bring the test gear and my experience and you would get some hands on fault finding experience and guidance as I wasn't planning on doing it all for you While I understand your thinking about infrequently going in the loft I have come across problems like this where there was 2 circuits with fault on each that when combined caused the RCD to trip, so it is entirely possible that a fault is developing that may become dangerous with continued use so it may be worth carrying out an EICR just for peace of mind The offer still stands for the future if you change your mind [/QUOTE]
