[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 501663, member: 250"] Have there been no periodic inspections done since 2008? The installation obviously existed then if you say it was probably installed to the 15th.... What was said on earlier reports about lack of RCD's for sockets rated <20A, buried cables <50mm, or circuits supplying bathrooms? As these were required under 17th and should have been effective since July 2008? Surely there would have been some previous "improvement recommendations" going back a few years now...? Or... Have there been no EICR's done "tested to the 17th edition"? :C It probably is about due to bring it up into the 21st century... Or looking at it from another angle.. If this apartment was a student flat one of my kids was looking at renting whilst at Uni... I would have suggested they look elsewhere if the property has no RCD protection. :popcorn [/QUOTE]
