Hi, looking for some much needed advice on this- looking to purchase a 3 bed 1930s. The seller bought this on auction a year ago and renovated kitchen to some degree. The Homebuyers came back 10k less than accepted price, and the EICR came as unsatisfactory with the following:
Observation(s) Code Location Reference
1 Consumer Unit has IP fail C2
2 No Circuit detail chart located on consumer unit C3
3 Mixed colour warning label missing from consumer unit C3
4 No surge protection present at origin of supply C3
5 No AFDD present on installation C3
6 No metal fire supports to plastic trunking/conduit throughout domestic property C3
7 No CPC to continuity of lighting circuits C2
8 CPC ring main continuity higher than expected (Circuit 2) C2
9 Bathroom light fitting not IP rated and located in Zone 1 C2
10 Circuit 4 Not Identified FI
11 Cable to outhouse lighting not supported/run correctly C2
12 No mechanical Protection where Cables Enter consumer Unit C3
We really do like the house in terms of potential and location but are unsure as we have maxed out budget. Are the faults above pretty major?
