he said he tested the rcd and it worked fine and is ok .....Did the "Electrician" carry out any tests on the RCD in question ?
?????
So no certificate issued, where did this electrician come from? Dodge City. Seems like you have had the wool pulled over your eyes Mate.gave me a invoice which simply says tested garage electrical sytsem.
i was there all the time whilst he was testing it.
used a clamp meter and another device of some sort which he can put up to 500 volts on the system etc if that makes sense .

An EICR of some sort for that particular circuit, or at the least a report with readings as you rightly pointed out. Although it would be fairly simple to issue an EICR for the circuit in question, may be OTT but at least it would show some pride in the Electricians testing regime, may not be the document the IET prescribe, but then there are no certs for repairs / fault finding is there, remember it's been a while since I was working, so there may have been changes, what sort of paperwork do you all use when you get called for a fault? if there is nothing then maybe something the IET should look at. Grateful for any thoughts.W

You OK Ant? not heard from "camerbloke" for a while either, maybe hes has gone away for the weekend. Absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that.W

Ah rightcomplete install (that's the job my post is referring to fit facemasks)
The two of the six are they wired so they both switch together on two way from each door have I interpreted this correctly? And is it a correct statement that it is only when you switch this bank of 2
lights it trips the RCD
Do these two lights that are 2 way switched together trip out the RCD with the other lights off?
Yes one of them did .so i swapped it over from one at the front of the garage and the other one to the one at the back of the garage taking them both off this 2 way circuit.Do these two lights that are 2 way switched together trip out the RCD with the other lights off?
