Board changes, customers and EIC's

[ChrisElectrical88]

That's 7000 ohms you do know yeah? Good for a while yet, let the guy who does the EICR in 10 years worry about it!

Test before the change, point out any defects informing the customer of any faults you find if they wont pay charge the for your time doing the test and off you go

I bet a neon or appliance or lamp left in! You checked the loft? Why the hell are you asking how to fill in a EIC? How did you get Elecsa registered? Oh yeah they let any muppets in!

Thanks for the constructive criticism, are you one of those members that answers questions to try and look good in front of other members by insulting people just starting out?

 

[ChrisElectrical88]

My bad, I'll call myself a muppet. Never get enough 0's on anything even my prices haha.

 

[SPARTYKUS]

Probably a different number of Ohms in America

Not at all, read my posts I try to help out as many people as I can, I just get sick of silly questions like the rest of the lads on here. You have past the Elecsa assessment which mean you are working alone with a dangerous killer. You should know the simples.

So you don't know how to fill out an EIC? You don't know how to deal with clients, GOD help you when you do a board change and the RCD's won't hold and the customer refuses to pay more money. Get a CAVEAT on your quotes/estimates dam quick. This isn't about looking good, believe you me.

And if you are an Elecsa member - try calling their technical line - they don't bite, but you need to be offering your idea of a solution with your question to get the best out of them.
