..it will be fine. ..
The circuit will remain the same regardless of the device used for earth fault protection, it will remain the same whether a type C or B device is used. There is not a perceived problem with the circuit, only a perceived problem with the choice of fault protection device. The apparent purpose of changing the device is to meet disconnection times when the present device already meets disconnection times, beyond stupid.Don't agree. You are adding to this circuit, so you are taking responsibility for the whole of that circuit, including the bit installed by others before you. If the test results don't roughly agree with the figures you would expect, then you can't sign this off without finding out why and correcting it, whether it conforms to the letter of the regs. or not.
The fact that this job was a fixed quote isn't relevant, and shows the dangers of quoting blind before any tests. You can appeal to the client's better nature and ask them to contribute to correcting the pre existing problem, but if they won't, it's out of your pocket and write it off as experience.
Which regulation are you referring to Essex?
Would appreciate it if you'd let me know when you find the reg no you are basing your disagree on. If I've got it wrong I'd like to know which regulation I've missed.
