[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 507795, member: 250"] All electrical inspections have elements of sampling and limitations regarding the extent of the installation to be checked.. ( otherwise it becomes a very time consuming and expensive task ) And if no previous certificates, reports or documentation are available then it will generally be a bit more involved identifying exactly what each circuit actually supplies.. There is NO legal requirement to open every socket / switch in every room.. A basic principal of 10% sampling is normally applied.. But that can be increased if non compliances are identified. But as Sidewinder said the extent of the inspection & testing will need to be agreed with the contractor prior to undertaking the work. Guinness [/QUOTE]
