MY understanding of this scenario, is a socket outlet spurred from a cooker circuit protected by a 40 amp MCB.

Solution, is change the double socket back box to a twin back box, on one half of which is a FUSED (13A) spur. This then feeds a single socket outlet next to it.

If you can't understand this, go clean toilets. I thought this was a forum for ELECTRICIANS!.

What we should really be asking here is the obvious question....Why, oh why didn't you just do a CU change on your own property?

Indeed. Get used to NOTHING being textbook (unless you become one of these guys who call themselves electricians and just pull cables in on newbuilds everyday).

As you have fitted a new CU you must use the appropriate protective device for the circuit otherwise your work will not comply. As above I think I would disconnect the cooker on those grounds if you feel the load is too great for the circuit..what happens after you leave is the clients business...however I think you'll find if you explain what you are doing and why they will have you back to rectify pretty sharpish..!

I have, explained.

Thanks for the revelations. Wanted to get this NICEIC quicker, I am a new business. Didn't want to use the " £250" grant I have for handing out leaflets courtesy of Princes trust.

Have two estate agent that like my idea, said they would send my leaflets to all their landlords. Wanted to send the leaflets with a NICEIC badge. Was offering something along the lines of £5 a month all inclusive callout. £40 excess. That was the idea. Also got a £1080 grant of the government and another grant of £540 there abouts. So nah I don't think I am a mug.

What you give you get back. The people I have done work for are all hard workers and good people. So .

You must have mis-typed this.....£5 a month all in for a call out? Can you please expand and clarify your business plan and background so we can be of more help.

£40 excess. The idea would be in the beginning it would be hard. But most of the time the landlord would be £5 a month, like an insurence. The landlord then knows any call out is not going to be no more £40. This is fault scenario.

:/ sore spot. I am now in rented accommodation. I did have a mortgage, bankruptcy.

Impossible to quote £40 max for fault finding. Sorry, but no wonder you are bankrupt with business plans like this. A bit like 'I WILL MOT your piece of she-ite car for £40, no matter what is wrong with it, I will put it right'.
