[QUOTE="Questioninganny, post: 510048, member: 33791"] Hi there. I would like some advice. Moved into a property 6 months ago and the property was found to have two category C2's reported on the EICR. I'm aware there are new regulations that apply since last July and that if there is an C2 marked it should be rectified in 28 days. The agent has a favored electrician who has told me I have a 'small width fuseboard" and that there are "stock shortages everywhere due to COVID" therefore he can't get hold of a fuseboard for the replacement even 6 months on after I moved in. Please can someone tell me 1. Is there actually a stock shortage? 2. If there isn't would that make it technically illegal that 6 months on I am still living in a property with a known E2 fault? The agent and their tradesman have not proved to be too trustworthy before and have operated at cross purposes so hence my suspician. Just want to know if on this occasion it's true or an excuse.
