Discuss Asbestos Flash Guards in the Periodic Inspection Reporting & Certification area at ElectriciansForums.net

I'm currently quoting to carry out an EICR for a large manufacturer with approx 500 circuits to test.

During the site visit the engineer in charge pointed out that some of the old boards still had asbestos flash guards and that another well known national contractor had refused to work/test these boards as a result.

Does anyone know what the deal is with these flash guards and what risks are? I'm booked onto an asbestos awareness course but need to submit my quote before then.

Thanks
