[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 502823, member: 1408"] Back to the " Change of tenancy" term . I always agreed with ithis , seen some places where the tenant has been messing / adding to / changing accessories etc . Called out to one by landlord , fishy smell of burning , no power . Found the main switch in the consumer at the halfway position between On & Off , burnt out . As a board we'd fitted I had a main switch with me , replaced it then looking round the hall I see posh polished switches etc had been fitted , I knew they were basic white before. Tenant denied switching the board off but I'd bet he knocked off the main switch to replace accessories , then didn't switch it back fully. Also with him changing accessories negates our EICR that was existing . I think landlords should have a ruling that gas or electrics are not to be interfered with . However if the latest legal position states 5 yrs and ignores the change of tenancy then so be it . As I always say , we are not the Electric Police. [/QUOTE]
