[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 548481, member: 250"] If you are undertaking a periodic inspection and completing and EICR, Guidance Note 3, (along with a few other useful documents, e.g. Best practice guide 4.) should be reference you have access to, hard copy or electronic.. [URL='https://www.electricalsafetyfirst.org.uk/media/fpton1au/bpg4-a5-2022.pdf']Best Practice Guide 4[/URL] And, in which case Guidance Note 3, Page 135, Paragraph 3.12 should answer your question.? Additional considerations:- The model EICR form on page 519 of BS7671 has a box that states the inspection and testing has been carried out in accordance with BS7671:2018 amended to.......................................... {fill in the amendment bit as appropriate.} I am not aware of ANY industry recognised formal certification that provides options for you to quote / reference earlier editions of BS7671??? New work / Alteration work / Inspection & testing are ALL carried out with respect to the current edition/amendment of BS7671 All an EICR is giving is an evaluation if an installation is satisfactory or unsatisfactory for continued use.. Which may or may not mean that some parts complied with earlier editions but do not comply with current editions.. [/QUOTE]
