Hello again,
well unfortunately I do not have my reports with me but if required can easily email to anyone who seems interested!
I do not mind another spark giving my reports a look over, after all when it comes to PIR it is an interpretation of BS7671 and all sparks could easily give a code 2 in one place whilst another could give a code 4 for the same reason!
This is the simple fact why there is no books / documetns giving strict guidelines to what is what code.
Hence my original question. I dont consider myself to be an expert, I do not know every last thing about the wonderful world of electrics, hence why I ask questions, I am willing to learn, willng to listen, I am not one of these people who disregards anyones opinion becasue it is different to mine, after all you can learn from anyone! complaceny creeps in when you think you know it all!
Anyhow, just for reference. most codes i have used on this installation are a code 4, with exception to the code 3 for the earthed connection due to a response!
these are things like : no RCD protection for lighting circuits. red and black wiring used. missing earth sleeving inside sockets or plain green used. missing brown sleeving on two way switching wires. twin and earth cable used for external security light. no RCD label for quartlery testing, consumer unit wiring not layed out correctly (mixed up neutrals for easy identification) terminal blocks used in lights, evidence of junction boxes used that arent accessible for testing, cant think of any more at mo, but there is enough there to probably try and lay the boot in
ha ha!
