Hi,

I carried out EICR on a rental property yesterdsy, i don't carry out many. i've only tested 25% and inspected 20% everything was ok, because theres no previous records should i carry ou 25% next
year or in 5 years time or change of tenant?

Thanks

Harry

No previous records, so it may never have been inspected, i would do a full test, change of tenant, can just be a visual and quick zs & rcd ze

As there are no previous records, i would carry out full I&T

why have you only tested 25%??, the NICEIC told me that you ALWAYS test 100% but can limit the inspection as low as 10% per circuit

 

[Marnik]

No Previous records etc. = Always Full EICR for me.Even when minor work has been carried out, would you put your name on a certificate
stating that everything is OK? , without full tests.No, me neither!

I've done 2 EICR's recently where the previous records are available:

1. Last test was a "quick" test - the PIR listed all circuits but I doubt they actually tested all circuits in a "quick test" and in fact 1 socket circuit didn't have continuity on the neutral

2. Last test was a full test prior to purchase, organised by the seller. I doubt the tester was even taken out of the bag. For example the "end to end" readings for the sockets circuits were all "100", and yes thats for L, N and CPC and the IR tests were all 100+
