Earlier you said you agreed £150 to carry out an EICR but now you are saying you agreed £150 for 4-5 hours labour? Which is it?
A key question when this sort of thing comes up is to ask what you would be expecting to pay if it has taken 7 hours? Would you be expecting him to honour the original...
DBs don't have a fire resistant construction, the room it is installed in should probably be fire sealed though.
Consumer units in a domestic installation need to be manufactured from non-combustible materials. They do not have to form any kind of fire proof enclosure.
So the mandatory 5 yearly EICR for a rented property is not yet due. So they are claiming this purely as a means of checking that the unauthorised work you did is compliant. This is over the top of it is just the moving of 2 light fittings that needs to be checked.

You tenancy agreement will include a clause stating that you are not allowed to make such an alteration without the landlords permission.

If you feel the work has not been completed to your satisfaction then you need to discuss that with him and get it resolved before paying the...
They definitely can't be reversed.
Certainly not the acti9 range anyway, Schneider have stayed true to the Merlin Gerin tradition of making excellent protective devices, good DBs and terrible lids/doors.
Yes and that branch can be connected anywhere in the circuit.
A spur can be connected to any part of a ring circuit, either at a point , a joint box in the cable or at the OCPD.
Great, but that is not what it says in the regulations or the supporting publications. An EICR should be carried out in accordance with the regulations, not the opinion of a faceless stranger on a forum.
If it was a problem with the boiler you would expect it to happen with all hot water taps, not just the kitchen.
If the fault only occurs when the kitchen tap is used then the cause is most likely to be something which is unique to the kitchen tap.
The boiler and it's associated systems are...
