I meant to update this So the email was from somebody at Open Reach We only found out this when the customer and I started a new call to move the master socket with Sky who then booked a visit with OR And later the original OR person emailed the customer with an apology for the slow response...

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

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

And the several partners includes NAPIT which is madness. No respect for them

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

NAPIT code breakers has been compiled, on the basis that pretty much all pre 18th edition installs are a fail - which of course is nonsense

Ah NAPIT Code Breakers - not the most reliable reference book

Switching what exactly ?

If it was me reviewing this dodgy EICR I would recommend they challenge the report for over zealous coding

And the more that they "improve" the more its ignored.

and what is the customer going to do? Thats a C3 in my book

What do these switches and sockets control? I think that is the most important question, before drawing any conclusions. A bit unusual to say the least but may only merit a comment.

I fear for the standards going forward as the unnecessary change on unnecessary changes make more people ignore the regs.................
