periodic codes

Code 3 is basically for things outside the scope of the PIR hence I wouldn't use a code 3 for this.
Maybe code 2 if there was signs of heat damage or not installed to manufacturers instruction.

A code 3 is reserved for further investigation required, not necessarily outside the scope of a PIR, an example being unable to trace a final circuit.

In reality that shouldn't be a problem as a spur only has a single piece of 1.5mm cpc

I agree it's unlikely to be an issue.

What experience of inspection and testing do you have?

What qualifications do you have?

Do NICEIC let you do PIRs?

[CLARIFICATION EDIT] Do NICEIC let you issue PIRs on red or purple forms? [/CLARIFICATION EDIT]

The NIC cannot forbid any competent person from undertaking Periodic Inspection and Testing except on their own forms.

Apologies - I've clarified my post.

OK fair enough, and I'm sure that's what you had meant in the first place.

It should be pointed out however that it is illegal for anyone to conduct any type of electrical work if not competent to do so.
