The draft "in service inspection and testing 5th edition" was out late last year for comments, and as I haven't got a copy of that, I don't have the timescales that were...
Hi Guys and Girls
Just checking if you have completed the level 3 NVQ and the AM2 does this make you a qualified spark and are you able to sign off work EICR Reports without doing the inspection and testing course or do you need this course aswell ??

When I bought my house we had it inspected before buying to highlight faults, so the inspection and testing done by RICS Chartered Surveyor and the report made. This clearly covered more than the electrics, but it did refer to the electrical installation so included a type of electrical...
Hi guys and gals,

Hi am doing my first periodic inspection for a restaurant, my understanding is that I need to test a percentage of installation, so can I test some circuits and leave others? And if I could perform a certain test on a circuit how can I fill the schedule of results? Thanks

Hello everyone!
Has anyone been asked to test the main building incomers like ACBs as part of Periodic Inspection? If yes, do you give this part of the work to 3rd party? and what is the process and how you verify the report?
some of my bigger clients are asking for this test to be done.

Hi people. I’ve got my first niceic inspection in a few weeks. Any advice on what to expect? What type of installations to show them? Any tips to get through it smoothly would be greatly welcomed.

Does anyone know of a...
