Haven’t seen it yet, it will be single phase suitable for a domestic dwelling. Sorry for the lack of detail.

If it is permanent I would have thought an EIC.

Yes, an EIC would be required.

Hi,do you know the method of changeover?
Size,earthing arrangements,monitoring and fuel type,will all affect how you will have to leave it for use,with a customer.
Lots of homeowners set out,with a request such as this,but when the extent of what is involved,in leaving them to it,is investigated,it is not unusual for aspirations and expectations,to alter.
It is always down to mamon

I am not unfamiliar with standby generators from my industrial days, back up for control rooms, conveyor lighting etc.
I know that isn’t BS7671.
I am unsure what to put down on the certificate.
On the EIC schedule of inspections section 2.1 it states complying to reg 551.
So where do you record your test results?
