Discuss Extent of schedule of test results for new circuit in DB in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Hello,

I am in the process of training to be an electrician and have a question. When filling out a EIC for a new circuit am I required to test all the other circuits in the board as part of the schedule of test results or only circuits I have installed/altered when completing?

If just my new circuits would I still list the others and leave the test results blank?

Also for the schedule of inspections would it only be relevant to my new circuits and just N/A anything that wasn't such as locations containing bath or shower ect?
 
Just the new circuit and all the details relating to the origin of the supply etc.
N/A in the schedule of inspections for items not related to your new circuits.
 
Also note the “extent of installation covered by this certificate” box near the beginning.
E.g. I’d write something like “supply and final circuits for kitchen socket and kitchen lighting”

You need to do enough testing/inspecting to be happy the installation is in a safe condition to extend/alter, which would generally always include supply, main earthing, bonding, and any shared RCD is working.
