In the U.K. the outer pvc sheath is considered mechanical protection on twin and earth

Now in America and Canada the outer jacket is not classed as mechanical protection and if run on wall should be either in flexicon or ridged con-do-it or boxed in
 
Hi, I am new to this forum and can't find an exact match to my search.
I am new to testing and inspection and have come across a db mounted in a garage on the wall whereby the t and e's for all circuits are clipped direct to the wall before entering the ceiling approx 1m above.
Is this deemed as a C2 or C3 on test cert?

Thanks.
Have you done the actual course in testing???
Because if you had you would know .
According to your question you don' t seem to know what these codes mean.
 
You should purchase one of the coding books from the scheme that you are registered with..
In that way you will be educating yourself and coding in accordance with the ones you are affiliated with
 
The irony of this thread (which I have only just read) is that the op wanted to code the clipping of the cables and was rightly lambasted for his decision
The coding of the cables would have been justified, had he picked up on "how" they have been clipped rather than "because" they were clipped
 
The bloke made a mistake, give him a break! Some of you guys are so smart a@#ed!
I would normally agree but to make a mistake on the simplest of issues warrant some of the responses. Especially if someone is paying him to do an accurate EICR. That customer deserves better.

Even I who likes to help rather than criticise think his understanding is shocking.
 
The guy doesn’t deserve a lynch mob though.

It was a simple question where he’s a little confused, a simple answer would suffice.... and maybe a couple of “agrees”...

Qualified or not, ongoing experience is a valuable asset
 
Well done Sherlock!
Who, apart from you even mentioned regulation 416??

I suggest you pay a little bit more attention before you go jumping in with silly comments

He does mention 4.16 in post #8.
