Be interesting to see the inside.

If that is the correct lid then an RCD has been removed. Edit, just checked the Part No and it should be dual RCD so that has been doctored.

You just need an RCBO (combined RCD and MCB) unless the spare ways are already RCD protected in which case just an MCB.

Suitable is as you say and the pic to see the nature of any RCD protection and whether protective devices are still available.

No provided it is suitable it is fine. Can you show a pic?

EV been around longer than ICE anyway but didn't catch on the fun was elsewhere.

It's engine, the fuel, the exhaust, the way you have to manipulate it all to get performance.

I'm not denying they have power I have already stated this and have experienced it but they are soulless appliances. Not making any excuses my choice is to drive cars with soul that make you part of the driving experience. "Not my problem" is making assumptions.

It is possible the recommendation to replace the tails is due to the insulation exposed at the meter and they are maybe too short to rectify, from the picture that may well be the case. Nothing to do with their size.

I buy a car that gives me a driving thrill not an EV appliance. I have little interest in this climate jive I don't care I want to feel the life in what I drive and that means not being that dull EV driver pretending they are enjoying it. Yes some EV cars have power but it is soulless and that...

Why not a Code 2 warrants unsatisfactory (not fail).

1.1 on the Inspection Schedule specifically refers to suppliers equipment including meter tails and there is absolutely no reason why you cannot Code a non compliance.

EICRs have been dragged down so deep with incompetent people two of which you have had I doubt the trade will pull itself out.

Problem with the ring final circuit is how many conductors are open one, two or three. Did the old report suggest it was a ring final.

Things I see; Conductor insulation exposed at the service meter (Code 2). IP rating not maintained top entries to the consumer unit . Warning notice missing at the main earth terminal. Impossible to be accurate on cable sizes but I see no Code 2.

Would would have to anticipate the length of circuit.

High R1+R2 should have warranted a bit more than a Code 3. Sounds like both tests have been by incompetent people. The first should have picked up the tails through separate holes assuming nothing has changed and it sounds like the second has been a bit harsh with some Coding and has jumped to...

If it is a ferrous enclosure they should go through the same hole but the chances of it ever being dangerous are less than zero. Commit to nothing until you see the report.

No ring continuity could mean it was once a ring final but for some reason it is no longer or was never a ring final. This needs investigating as opposed to a quick fix. Can you post the report with personal details redacted? I doubt the earthing conductor (incorrectly termed main earth) would...

What I know about electric gates you could write on the back of a stamp but just from a visual perspective all of those unfixed components are surely not original. It looks a complete lash-up.
