[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 502795, member: 1408"] You raise some interesting points Electricspecs . I would have agreed with Specs on the change of Tenancy but now I'm not sure . I would say that the new laws for landlords recently issued by the government would overrule all others where they state 5 year intervals . I recently did one for a landlord ...whose letting agent was demanding a test every year ...I lkeft it with them to sort , not my business. Back to your EICR , I would suggest that your property did not require surge protection unless you asked for it . I am guessing that your electrician is looking at the sub - main from the meter ( That he calls a "Twisted pair " ) which is phone cable by the way, and if it is buried in the wall the Regs ask for RCD protection . However , as you say , it may be the scope of the building management ..... it s not endangering your tenant . The reference to "Twisted Pair " as power cable is somewhat strange to be honest .
