The Gray area that I have picked up on is, if you are able to plug an extension lead into a ground floor socket and take it outside, or corridor sockets where cleaners may be plugging in hoovers or floor polishing machines. Where I would still put this as a C3 but with a foot note explaining my findings and concerns.

So you replace them with RCD sockets and futureproof against stupid or would this be cost prohibitive?

It would always be cheaper to put an RCD in its own enclosure next to the DB than RCD sockets, but you have to remember that this is an EICR only. The customers dose not have to act on your findings or recommendations, so you would discuss what you have found and talk over what are the most important faults to correct,
