Surely its just common sense?
Without knowing the precise circumstances behind the introduction of the Regulation it would be difficult to guess precisely as to its intent.
There are commonly held views on this Regulation, but that isn't necessarily to state that it is the correct view. It will always be a matter of opinion without further clarificaftion.

The regulations are so clear that there are a proliferation of books and guidance notes with other peoples opinions that cloud the problem even more.
In the regs, one edition it's correct the next it's not. You could not make it up.
That job is solely reserved for the IET.
Think about it though, if done correctly with 100a single pole blocks each conductor could be under 4 brass screws, with all those properly tightened and the blocks within an enclosure I honestly can't see a problem.
In reality probably not - are you going to put your name on the paperwork then? Daz
If it was an EICR I'd put it as a code 3 with a comment Daz, I'd always use continuous lengths of tails on a new install though so the question doesn't apply in that scenario.

It's funny but I've always been a bit wary of crimps, just me I suppose.
