EIC or EICR?

[ennaress]

Sitting (or rather squeezing my belly into my tiny CU cupboard ) my NICEIC assessment (to join) next week. My case study is a new 6A radial circuit. It has its own way in the CU.
Do I complete an EIC on the basis that it's a new installation or an EICR on basis that it's connected to an existing CU/installation?

Hum... do you understand the difference between the 2 certificates, and which one you are obliged to use for a new circuit and part p?

Knowing what forms are relevant will be part of the assessment of your competence to undertake electrical work under their banner

Ask yourself,do you want to give the guy a report on the existing installation or do you want to give him a certificate detailing the work you carried out that shows it meets current regulations

I would just cancel the assessment for the time being, and do some more case studying

Think it might be the case we've put off our OP, perhaps he's packed his bags. Or has he dug a hole for himself

[Ian1981]

Where is this cert in BS7671.

Based on the model forms in appendix 6 (informative)
Of course Other forms are available

So who uses these forms I use ordinary EICs for domestic.

 

[Ian1981]

Domestic certs are usually what niceic want to see on a domestic install.

I think most of the replies to this post have been answered in a way to try and make the original poster think for himself, and to come to the right conclusion to a question he should maybe know the answer to, at least that's my take, far to many people ask for the answer to a question rather than look for themselves, 1 poster even asked a question about the Regulations and said he couldn't be bothered to even look for his own copy.
You have to admit as a mentor I will always as far as possible try to steer the questioner to the answer rather than just come out with the answer.
