We have just had a our spark in to test upgrade works to a residential project.
We require to certify upgrade works as detailed in our building warrant, this has been carried out and our spark has written out the certs.
However, a colleague of his has suggested that he should not issue the certs now on the basis that our existing split load CUs do not incorporate RCD protection.
This is a large house with 4 CUs, one to each floor. UFH heating circuits and towel rads have been protected with dedicated RCDs and there has been little other material change to the wiring other than additional sockets, lighting circuits and mechanical ventilation.
I find it hard to believe that the installation cannot be certified as is as all test carried out have been passed.
Appreciate your advice
