All,

For an industrial facility circa 15,000ft (floor level and small mezzanine) what would you expect to be the time scale to perform the above test?

Ball park is fine.
We've been quoted two weeks work, i thought this was excessive.

There is a reasonable amount of electrical circuitry for a manufacturing facility with IT infrastructure but nothing out of the norm. Facility is about 15 years old.

Would be interested in your thoughts.

Thanks in advance

Car fixed for £120 for those keeping tabs, may be time for a trade in however!

Two weeks is quite rapid to be honest..!!
Considering the various tests that have to be undertaken on each and every circuit, including, light sockets, switches, wall plugs, etc.
Not to mention all single and three phase circuits and the main incomers. Then of course there is the documentation to go along with it all.

Is this for 100% inspection. Be careful some companies only do 20%, based on 5 year inspection cycle
