[QUOTE="green-hornet, post: 72556, member: 2683"] Any code 1 would be an automatic unsatisfactory. I think the original tester is not up to date with testing or assesment. "3 main di tails are damaged code 2" any damaged cables would be code 1. "7 socket on landing is unswitched code 2" cough!!!! "8 16a mcb feeding 1mm2 t&e code2/3" where a tester finds codes of two the highest is the only one that needs to be placed on the certificate. "10 cooker circuit is suppling twin socket on a 32a mcb code 2" I have no idea what he is saying here? Also the next ones are ambigious to say the least. "13 pattress for shower is broken code 2" any fixture that is broken would automatically get a code 1. "14 14 shower switch connections are exposed and require improvement code 1" require improvement is a code 2, requires urgent attention is code 1 any exposed terminals will be code 1. "15 socket in shed is damaged code 2" this is a code 1. There is no way a PIR would be signed off as satisfactory with code 1's. I would be tempted to do a full test, because this tester is obviously inexperianced, and would or could have missed some more serious problems with this installtion. [/QUOTE]
