Consumer Unit Replacement

[Bob Nicholson]

Hi,

I have just re-joined the fold after spending a memorable 12 months doing something completely different.

I have read the various threads on "Inspection & Testing" of ccts being re-connected to a new replacement CU. The anguish and pain of testing existing ccts is one that I am still familiar with.

Is a replacement CU, Notifiable and where does it state it in the Regs please?

Thanks & Regards

notifiable or not has nothing to do with 7671. its all is part P. 7671 is just how you have to do the work
