How many eicr in a day

[7029 dave]

If they are having an EICR then they get one every year for the part of the installation which has been tested.

Don't forget that a properly recorded system of regular inspection, testing and maintainence is a valid alternative to an EICR.

That makes sense ,thanks.

@Brian Taylor ignorance of the law is no excuse. You must work and act within the Law. Knowing that BC must be informed prior to notifiable work does not make you a lawyer! Most people know this anyway. If you cannot understand the law then you cannot understand the regs. In which case you should not be in the field of work one should be filling shelves and keep it simple. I or we are not "simple sparkles" (read electricians) as you put it. I have had to sit maybe 20 different exams over time, practical and written. Although it is basic science and we are not rocket scientists it does require some application to master the basic science along with intelligence. Now you can self talk yourself down and no doubt others here will help you but it ends at including me and others in your endlessly shrinking view of yourself. I am not knackered as you put it. I am full of energy and love of life. As it happens I did do a law degree some 30 years ago now. I have been a chair of a charitable trust. So I have dealt with some quite technical stuff. Me? I am built for it. I have never seen my self as simple, like Dorian Gray in the league of Gentlemen, I see myself as complicated. Mediocrity and self flagellation is a hateful thing to me. As you say this forum is for the exchange of ideas. What are you doing here then? Ideas are complex stick to your screwdrivers oh humble sparkles leave this to the big boys. Or...take on board some of the ideas here and humble yourself in a real way and accept that this is a two way street and open up to some of the ideas here. Like; there is a bit more to being a sparky than smacking something with a hammer.

Ah so I begin to get an insight into your approach to this exchange and your concentration on the legal aspect of things. I'm guessing that your legal training gives you an insight into that aspect of things and as such I would expect to be interested in that topic. Given your level of academic achievements i get the impression that you are far more than a sparkie..more an engineer. As such I feel that I have misjudged you and that the higher rate of remuneration is probably justified .once again i apologise and wish you every success.

I am not an engineer (I wish!) and I know there are far better sparks than me on here, just for the record @Brian Taylor. Apologies are not necessary as you have done nothing to offend. All I am really saying is the point about BC notification. I can't put it any more simpler than that please don't over read this. You cannot do work in domestic without notification. If you do you will be breaking the law unless it is always non notifiable work. I think most sparks on here know this. Just a word to the (hopefully!) wise really. You did ask!

Thank you for your advice sir.

as a matter of interest what is the difference between noticeable and non noticeable work.....what constitutes a noticeable job?

A new circuit, a consumer unit change or work in a special location.

If you don't know what needs notifying, how can you tell the appropriate customers to notify building control?

Also brian if you need further clarification a special location in domestic includes
Outside electrics
A room containing bath or shower

 

[Mike Johnson]

Would a qualified electrician need telling what is notifiable and what are special locations? Rhetorical question that makes me suspicious.

But for more info regarding it refer to your regs book part 7
