Advisory after new shower fitted

[pete01]

I mentioned that, early on ....

Sorry hadn't read it all

I wonder how many people have this same problem and dont even realise it, handyman etc probably replace showers like for like all the time and don't do any testing.

I realise that, but the test result(s) which would interest us should be available from either an EIC or an EIC, shouldn't it?

It should but …..

I don't think there is any real need to 'wonder', since I think that we all know that the 'how many' will be a very large number

In post #14 OP stated that the EFLI in the 2021 EICR was 0.9 Ohms.

That’s within limits but feels high for a 40 A circuit in a domestic TN-C-S installation. Does the EICR mention EFLI at the consumer unit?

He did, but I wonder how sure we can be that that relates to the shower circuit?

We obviously could do with seeing that EICR.

The photo of the cutout suggests a TN-S earthing system not TN-C-S.

I would guess it failed the test named
Less than 2 ohms

Rather than 2r being a result

Who knows - but that's not what we've been told. We've effectively been told that it "passed" a "less than 2 Ohms" test.
