I've got a new installation within a biomass boiler building connected to an installation I've just carried out.
The boiler room install has been carried out by a non registered contractor and as it's been connected to my install, I've been asked to carry out an EICR by the client.
The installer has said they will issue a completion cert, but to date nothing has appeared and the client inst happy.
the boiler room in 100m from my installation and connected to a 45amp isolator I've wired in 10mm t&e in the main house.
The boiler company has installed a 35mm swa connected to this isolator and have exported the PME.
ZS At the boiler house is 0.99 ohms, border line for the 45amp supply mcb and they have relied upon my 30ma RCD in the house to protect the boiler, sockets, lights etc.
the boiler room contains a mass of large copper and steel pipe work and there is no earthing or bonding to this whatsoever.
ive got a few things to say about this, however also all the wiring in the boiler house has been done in SY flex from the dis board. Normal Trs glands have been used and none of the screening of the SY cable has been earthed.
All the cabling within the boiler room is on steel tray, there is no bonding or earthing to the tray either.
Your thoughts on this, codes and what code for the SY connections please gentlemen (and ladies)
discuss....
its on of those I need to be sure of what I'm saying and claiming before the **** hits the fan...
