Testing a flood damaged property, usual process?

Matey .... just get on site and do an EICR ...... submit with invoice and move on .....

An EICR is pointless at this stage, and the surveyor/main contractor/ insurance co know it.
Live tests are a no no.
Even if your IR read ok, damage can be caused to cables during rip out. Visual inspection beforehand, then during works before walls go back up.
EICR or full test once complete? Im going full test on mine as I changed the DB

I bet the people who put in the sprinkler system are already buying tickets to a non extraditable country.

I had thought that sprinkler systems had connection to the fire alarm so if they went off they couldn't do so "on the quiet" (?).

exactly my thinking behind the disclaimer - fine now but who knows how long for... probably not the rated 25- 50,000 hrs!

Agree, I'd replace them. The original warranty won't be honoured now, I bet.

Advise to install a system that detects water leaks from the sprinkler system, where is the build and why have a water fire suppression system?

Move the Family out to safe accomodation, remove all the accessories, leave it for a week portable A/C units fed from a temp supply, comeback, retest the insall, repair any concerns, retest again, not rocket science really.
