Electric report findings

Joannag_2

We are moving in to a new house on Wednesday. We have an electrical survey which has shown a few things requiring urgent attention...

No earth continuity to metal light fittings in porch and not working

No ring continuity circuit 7 (sockets down)

Wall lights no earth continuity/may have been disconnected

There were other things needing improvement but all to be expected as it is a property requiring updating.

My question is how urgent is urgent?
Should we get someone out in the first few days or can it wait a few weeks until we buy new light fittings etc and get someone in to do the lot. All gobbledegook to me but I don't want to take any risks but if they are not working does this mean no risk of shocks etc anyway?

Any advice appreciated, many thanks, Jo

No earth continuity to metal light fittings in porch and not working no earth is a problem if there is a fault condition as the metal could become live then if you touch it you will get zapped

No ring continuity circuit 7 (sockets down) that defiantly needs fixing

Wall lights no earth continuity/may have been disconnectedif they are disconnected it's not really a problem

There were other things needing improvement but all to be expected as it is a property requiring updating.
