[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 476900, member: 8133"] I find its also one you have to be careful applying, its all too easy to mark non-compliances which are not C2 or C1 classifciation as C3, but in doing so you are recommending someone goes and does something about it, I'm guessing its the mid-set of using the old code from PIRs. I suppose the insurance companies take on it is along the lines of "The electrical professional is recommending this is done - so why should be potentially accept a greater risk by allowing his recommendations to be ignored, even though they are recommendations and not a requirement to get a satisfactory outcome" Such as green only sleeving on CPCs, no one really recommends someone should go and swap it all out for stuff with the yellow stripe. I think if you take the official line, then there is no need to note it on an EICR at all, sometimes it can be a usful record, so I prefer to note it, but without a code (A dash is inserted, so its clear the lack of a code is not a typing error). So therefore are not 'recommending' anything, and often this is clarified in the text of the observation [/QUOTE]
