[QUOTE="RB2004, post: 294365, member: 8832"] Hi Im not going to be energising any circuits without testing hence why I was going to hire a calibrated test meter they are about £100 per week, and do all my own tests on each circuit prior to energising it... as the house is currently inhabited, and I cant rip out all the lighting and socket circuits, replace all the cables in a day and wait until final testing is done. So I thought maybe I could get around that by installing the circuit, doing my own tests, then if they are within the requirements of 17th Edition Amendment 1 (will get the figures from the book as I own a copy) then I havent energised any circuits without testing.. then council electrician can do the testing again to verify my readings and sign it off. Because I am doing the circuits 1 by 1..can I for example rip out a lighting circuit 1 day, then change the cables.. get the electrician to inspect, then rip out a socket circuit another day, get it inspected, then move onto next one? or would I litterally have to have all circuits in and left open before inspection?
