Hi guys. I have 2 questions to confirm my thinking.
1. If I perform an EICR on an installation, which was Installed whilst a previous edition of the regs were in place, does it mean that I can give a satisfactory condition providing all test results and observations are correct for that particular set of regs. Much the same if I see work was done at a time where RCDS were mandatory for circuits incorporating socket outlets and the installer had not followed current regs at time of installation, that would mean an unsatisfactory condition would be what I would report. Is this correct thinking?
2. If a customer requests a CU change and I notice the lighting circuit had no CPC, would I be able to install new cu, and then test install as usual. Or would I have to rewire lights first to bring up to current regs?
any help would be gratefully received.
Matt.
