to label or fault when carrying out EICR

[MG201]

a question that i have to ask sorry if it seems daft in advance, when carrying out a PIR,EICR you come accross boards that dont have labels on them , do you put this on report as code 3 ? or do you just take the time to put a new label on the board ( assuming you have them to hand)

 

[telectrix]

i put the labels on. it's quicker than filling in cert. ( and i charge a couple of quid for each.)

Depends on which labels you are referring to ....

 

[Strima]

I just put them on. I saw a report for the next inspection label missing but then the inspector put on his next inspection label...

 

[westward10]

They are notices not labels.

 

[telectrix]

but they are notices printed on labels.

I would C3 code - Absence of a detailed legible diagram, chart or table or equivalent of information that has not been provided in the vicinity of the consumer unit and other informative labels. BS 514.9.

They are notices, none of which are important.

 

[telectrix]

and totally ignored by customers. never yet had one say he/she tests the RCD button.

They are notices, none of which are important.

Especially the one warning of different colours ........ a waste the the planets resources

Now the 18th are calling for 6 monthly testing of rcds so my new roll of rcd test notices, not bloody labels will be no good soon.

Why that wasn't removed from the 18th is beyond me.

Why that wasn't removed from the 18th is beyond me.

I stopped using them a couple of years ago .....

 

[stevethesparks]

there will be a dated test log card next for rcd testing.

 

[telectrix]

that'll be amd #1 to the 18th, due around 2020.

there will be a dated test log card next for rcd testing.

... and as useful as those in the supermarket / Mc Donald's toilets

I thought it was a sarcastic snipe at being too tight for a Re-wire !

I just had to double check, cheeky bleeders and it wasn't well advertised...

Who ever bothers testing 'em, anyway. Sorted out a supply for a replacement hot tub last month....RCD knackered.....could have been like that for the last 5 years.

It's just a label.....or notice, sorry W, that most people don't understand, anyway.

 

[Octopus]

Makes you wonder why anyone wasted time changing something that is so unimportant .......

Love to see the reasoning and justification for this .....
