Good evening all !

I've been reviewing test sheets lately off sub contracting electricians not in a official capacity as of yet and there are a few items I have noted but would like peoples thoughts.

1. Cooker wired in 6.0 T+E Ref method 101 32a Rcbo surely a Code 2 but no mention in test sheet what would you recommend

2. Upgrading of gas and water bond in an old wylex consumer unit would this require an installation cert ? Plus on same job changing of a light to a different type in a special location would this be part p or classed as maintenance ?

Thanks all

1. Cooker wired in 6.0 T+E Ref method 101 32a Rcbo surely a Code 2 but no mention in test sheet what would you recommend Care to expalin futhere Is this a EICR or a EIC.

2. Upgrading of gas and water bond in an old wylex consumer unit would this require an installation cert ? Plus on same job changing of a light to a different type in a special location would this be part p or classed as maintenancne? Like for like replacement so no need for part p notification.

Thanks all

It's on EICR how can upgrading of bonding be like for like surely you have to test each circuit to confirm zs readings etc ...?

Why would you need to test every circuit when installing main bonding? Just install it and test the connection then go to pub haha
 
6mm ref. method 101 = 27A. OK, the 32A MCB is over rated for overload , but as the cooker has a fixed max. load which will be <27A unless it's a beast, then you might consider that overload protection can be omitted (433.3.1 (ii))
