Hi all,
I'm in the process of selling my flat and the buyer has just had an electrical inspection/test carried out and the guy has said the following are defects that need rectifying;
1. Upgrade fuse board to CU with earth leakage (RCD) and MCB's.
2. Upgrade fuse board (off-peak) to CU with MCB's.
3. Earth bonding to water incomer, cross bond pipe work and zone bond in bathroom.
Are these actually defects or just requirements of new regs? Quoted £800 for the work to be carried out.
Flat was built in 1984 and is twin&earth wired.
Any advice greatly appreciated. Cheers
