Got an EICR to do tomorrow so just getting a headstart on paperwork .. customers sent me a few pics , straight away fuse board is OAF .. no RCD ... Now .. how do I code this ? And what's your thought process ..

I have it in my head that , should a customer be able to run an extension lead out the door /window of the house and use a Jetwash or any other equipment .. I regard this as "potential danger" C2 ? ...

Most would say C3 and I agree In some respect

.. Napit Codebreakers book is great but not 100% clear on the situation ... Any train of thought would be nice thanks
 
also a C2 for bathroom circuits if no RCD or supplemantary bonding present. newboard required. .
 
No point mincing about these days imo

if it ain’t got any rcd on the installation then i Strongly recommend a board change before even bothering spending 4 hours doing an eicr which ultimately will just fail due to lack of any rcd protection

I personally look at the condition of the installation, if class 1 accessories, electric shower fitted, outside lighting etc its a C2 for me personally. Boards and Installations can be OAF and still be serviceable and safe.
