[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 384550, member: 8133"] And as a non electrically skilled person how can you be sure of that? This is a get out letting agents try in order to cover their backs while avoiding getting into the need to have a condition report and remedials carried out (because a lot of places on their books would need a fair amount of remedials) My house had previously been let out by the same estate agent that sold it to me, they told me that because of this, there was a gas safety cert available for the boiler, I asked them if there was also a PIR available, and was told the owner had signed a declaration saying it was safe. Now considering there was no means of earthing at all (zs at a socket was 100 odd ohms through various paths) and there wasn't even the saving grace of an RCD (all re-wireable fuses)....he might have ended up in a sticky situation if an earth fault had occurred!
