IEE Regs

[JohnW2]

The fixed installation between the circuit main control and conversion box should in my opinion be completed in cable rather than flex. My original questions should be noted, I was asking for the reg number so that the installers can convince me otherwise.

That's your opinion, but unfortunately that is not a requirement of BS7671. ... Providing the flexed installation is compliant to 521.9.1.

Indeed - that sounds like a reasonable paraphrase of what I just wrote!

Kind Regards, John

My concern, (along with earth clamps fitted to painted pipes

Earth clamps to what part of the installation, I assume the exiting installation was bonded, prior to this work

earth fault loop readings when no test was carried out

Lack of testing, I love it, that's cheered me up, hardly any one gives a toss. How do you know this test was not carried out, and what is stated on your documents?

with a boiler that is fitted to a timber panel, with a overflow/vent pipe that finishes 100mm above a plasterboard ceiling rather than into a tank................ and the story goes on)

Next you will telling us the tank is in the loft and uninsulated as are the pipes within the loft and has no lid or an over flow pipe.
