[QUOTE="Revved Up Sparky, post: 72274, member: 5050"] Yes a consumer unit replacement is classed as [I]An alteration[/I] to the whole installation and thus an EIC is necessary (check page 29, Inspection, Testing and Certification, 5th edition, for more info -- or get the book if you have'nt got it already). If the work is in a domestic dwelling then it is likely a DEIC will be necessary (chapter 3, Inspection, Testing and Certification). You cannot do full IR tests with those appliances plugged in so, as mentioned earlier, there is no limitations section on a DEIC but you can mention this under "Comments On Exisiting Installation".
