^ as above, you can't issue an EIC unless you designed and installed the works.
The most you can do is a PIR, with 100% sampling.
If you issue an EIC then you will have to notify it under Part P which you can't do as it was a new build etc. etc. etc. and you did not do the install.

In London we give a generic certificate obtained from EDF a few years back, which i have copied here
I used 3 of these last week for UK Power networks, British Gas & Scottish & Southern even though the paperwork still says EDF. All they are looking for is a 'pass the buck' bit of paper

Drop me a PM with an email if you want a copy. You could blank out EDF at the bottom if you think it will be a problem.

good luck with that.
just remember when something does go wrong down the line with the installation, you have effectly signed to say you take responsibility

EIC is for works done. he should be using PIR
Slips,
I can't see how he can complete an Electrical INSTALLATION Certificate when he has not done the installation.

Ok i understand it should Be a PIR I issue (silly me) I've been to the house guys and done the dead testing and there is a number of circuits with IR problems. The house is empty and never been lived in. The fella who just bought it has no electrical certs. The house was built in 2007. The builder went bust a few years ago. I'm not sure if the house has ever been energized. I've only just passed my DI assessment and don't think I can issue PIR'S. I'm going back Thursday to trace the problems. Can I just issue a standard BS7671 PIR cert with me being a " competent person "?
I don't see why not, the DNO surely just wants a bit of "pass the buck" paperwork as mentioned earlier on in the post.
Another question. Does it have to be a dual rcd board as the lighting and smoke circuits are not protected by rcd.
It's a tnc-s supply and the main earth is a 10mm, I thought it had to be 16mm?

part p is nothing to do with PIR's. you only need to be competent, which from below i doubt you are.
:C
nothing. your the one who brought it up saying saying you dont think you can do PIR's
it is about helping each other out, but if you dont already know stuff like that then you shouldnt be carring out PIR's (this is basic stuff for PIR's. if you dont now that, what else dont you know?). stick with what you do know and can do
