And the judgement of incompetence is perfectly reasonable, because you have fitted an old broken CU, not supplied by you, which has been modified from the original maker's specification and design.
However, you can show that his judgement was wrong, and that his accusation was groundless, by clarifying the status of this CU.
1) Did you check what the MI say about bits being missing?
2) Did you do a proper test of the IP rating of the CU without the cover in place?
3) Did you exercise reasonable skill and care in determining that to the best of your knowledge and belief that modified CU did still comply with BS EN 60439-3/A1?
If you can provide good answers to those then I'm sure retractions and apologies will be forthcoming.
If you cannot, or if you just ignore them, then the judgement of incompetence is going to stand, and if you issued an EIC then one of you being a fraudster will be added.
it is the plastic mcbcover that flaps down and as i understand it i this cover is not needed to pass an eic as everything is in place to comply with safety & health
If the consumer unit has a fuse or MCB cover missing, this contravenes regulations. How can everything be in place "to comply with safety and health" (whatever that is) if a part that was supplied with the unit originally is missing???
