Hi guys and gals,
I've been asked by a landlord to go to a property to check the electrics which were de-energised by the fire brigade after a smallish fire was started by candles. I've been told there is no obvious damage to the electrical installation but the fire brigade state "Gas and electric have been isolated. do not reinstate until checked by a competent person".
I am unsure whether to demand a full EICR before passing it or just to do a visual check and perhaps a few tests. Has anyone else been in the same boat that can advise?
(other than demand a EICR, solely on just getting more money - I'm busy enough)
Ta.
