Discuss R2 testing necessary for an eicr certificate. in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

i still don't know if the OP has installed that or if he's doing an EICR. confused .com.
 
Not so funny when you kill yourself or some jobsworth at the DNO decides to chase you for a nice fine! I wont pull any of them old ones after i saw a Western Power Video of the state of some of them, even the DNO wont touch some of the ones around here they would rather cut the wire outside in the name of health and safety rather than suit up like a wannabe spaceman. the newer ones are a bit better if there is no load but always a bit of a gamble. just be careful.
Wasnt me who done the job im just assesing it

yeah . Pinocchio.
 
I still don't fully understand what you are doing with that installation.

Are you installing it?

Are you carrying out a periodic inspection?

You say this is for your NICEIC Domestic Installer assessment? What have you actually done to the installation?
 
Okay
@Abu Yoo say you didnt do the installation yourself and are using it for a domestic installer assessment, the key in these is that you are assessed on work you do yourself and my understanding is that DI assessments with NICEIC don't cover EICR or assessments on others work as that is for Approved contractors and not strictly speaking within the remit of the DI scheme. If you are going to show another persons work to the NICEIC assessor then I do hope they recognise the job as i know quite a few lurk on the forum in the shadows and pull you up on saturday and subsequently reject you.
I dont believe what you are writing on this post as something doesn't add up in my mind. If assessing it why? as i have never known anybody do a EICR for the DI scheme.
If somebody else did do the work then what work of your own will you show the assessor on Saturday?
 
I can't believe that the NICEIC assessor would work on the weekend.
From my last out of area assessment in July I got the feeling that they've cut down on the number of area engineers and increased their area sizes, it was a time frame of over 6 weeks to arrange a site visit.
