    High zs

    Mmm If all the circuits are high Zs. IMO it must be an external issue. Is the main earth lead nice and tight at the MET.

    Knowing the difference between imperial cable and metric?

    They did a 1/044 PVC imperial cable, as far as I know it never had cpc but not 100% sure.

    Junction Box Recommendation

    Cooker circuit is a dedicated radial only for such, obviously you can have a CCU with a socket incorporated with in the unit.

    Cut cable under the flooring

    They cant close the floor up, you have 2 open joints there insulation tape is not sufficient. I would advise your son to call up the company in person and explain the situation.

    Cut cable under the flooring

    Why have they cut back so much, IMO you wont get an MF enclosure round that joint (one of them looks too long) , needs replacing or 2 MF joints put in per cable. Unless you can get some slack up on them cables.

    When to rewire?

    Back in the day testing was not carried out much in all honesty, most sparkies only carried a megger, basic voltage test and a earth loop impedance tester if you were lucky. IMO with the amount of testing today VIR cables would not take too much pulling about, especially at the accessories...
