Hi, new member here! Thanks for any advice in advance. This week I got a new consumer unit installed. The electrician has just sent me through an EICR certificate. From what I had read I was under the impression that I needed an EIC form rather than an EICR. Is this the case? Is an EICR form acceptable or should I push for an EIC?
 
You should get an installation certificate.
they should also be doing your building control notification.
 
Hi James, what is a building control notification?

Whenever a new circuit or a consumer unit change is carried out it is classed as a notifiable job. This means your local building control dept need to be notified.
