[QUOTE="Almundoman, post: 551335, member: 29670"] Was he checking the cable going to the boiler from the spur or the cable feeding the spur from the Consumer Unit? I've never heard of a boiler engineer checking the wiring, surely that's the sparky's job? What test equipment did he use a generic uncalibrated multimeter? Also the fact he uses the term holms and not ohms really doesn't inspire any confidence in his ability to test any part of the electrical installation. Is anything else wired into the spur like a thermostat receiver or any kind of boiler controls or wiring? Is this an independent engineer or is he a company employee? Either way I would ask for an official report and then quiz him on his findings. [/QUOTE]
