I don't think a minor works certificate would be appropriate for a CU change - but if you change that to "EIC", then I agree - the only things that need 'testing/re-testing' are the new works, and the testing of that will be documented on the EIC. As you say, at least from the point of view of the PRS legislation, a new EICR does not have to be issued.
Quite. As I commented at the time, one has to wonder whether the OP was actually given the right report!
AS I need not telly you, any electrical work theoretically 'requires' a Minor Works cert, if not a EIC - and that's a 'general truth' (per BS7671), nothing to do with the PRS legislation.
That surely has to be correct, since an Minor Works cert would not have provision for recording the tests required after a CU change.
Yes, but you're now talking about 'notification', which is different from what we're discussing. Although notifiable work has to be 'notified' (directly, or by 'self-notification'), the PRS legislation says nothing about that.
Indeed - or, as I said, perhaps not even the EICR which relates to the OPs property/installation?
Big or small the company, as has been said, there is something very wrong with that EICR - which really ought to be 'challenged'.
I would fire off an email to the company asking if they have sent you the wrong report, as their findings do not match reality.
Indeed - that's certainly what I would do.
