Gulp.
It's only fair I post up my own EICR for this install.
It's a draft just ready for me to proof read later.
Why do I have the feeling I am throwing myself to the Wolves?
I've a concern over the shower actually - because there are obvious signs of heat damage at the connection to the shower and connections seemed very tight too. I wanted to cut back and re-terminate but there is no slack. Not ideal as I don't really want to have to extend inside the enclosure...
Quick update.
Spent much of the day there - and its only a 2 bed house. Such a mess though.
Previous EICR/EIC paperwork was no help at-all.
It was a bad board change too, tails not upgraded from 10mm, main earth is still 6mm and no bonding to water intake. Big holes, no grommet strip, cables not...

So the landlord has lost faith in this electrician and is...
Hi All,
A top quality EICR report attached.
I'm detecting an increase in opportunists looking to scare the bejesus out of landlords in particular. This report is utter crap. Everything ticked or N/A on the inspection schedules to suggest all is satisfactory but then some belter C1's in...
Its actually a house move with buyer requesting an EICR. Seller still there. But you are right about it being a pita. As soon as I spotted it I informed the current owner what to (try) to do about it and then she spent the afternoon on the phone trying to sort it. Not good. Apparently the energy...
