What happens on the day
We test the portable items written for one premises, then label the ones that passed and set aside the ones that did not. On the Brighton Road and Foxley Lane parades the shop and the flat above are two lists, because their supplies are meant to be separated and labelled. A house on the Webb Estate can have more than one board, and that does not put the portable test onto both boards. In Riddlesdown the portable items are not a substitute for the extra sockets a 1930s Laing house was short of.
- Test the list in front of youEach portable item named for that premises is tested and marked. Items that were not on the list stay out. A failed item is set aside rather than passed over.
- Split the parade into two listsA shop on the Brighton Road parades is one list. The flat above is another, once the supplies are labelled. Foxley Lane shops are not mixed with the homes over them.
- Leave the fixed wiring aloneBoards on the Webb Estate are not opened so a kettle can be tested. Fixed wiring, and the extra sockets a Riddlesdown house may want, are different visits.

WhatsAppIs a shop on the Brighton Road parades the same test as the flat?
No. The supplies are meant to be labelled apart, so the shop's portable items and the flat's portable items are two lists.
Do you open both boards on the Webb Estate?
Not for this test. Portable items are plugged in and tested. The split supply is a fixed wiring question, handled on an inspection.
Will this add sockets in Riddlesdown?
No. A 1930s Laing house that wants more outlets needs those outlets booked. Testing a lamp does not fit them.
What happens to an item that fails?
It is marked and set aside. It is not put back into use so the list can look complete, whether that was a shop item or a house item.
Can Purley Oaks and the parade be one visit?
Only when each premises was named. A house in Purley Oaks and a shop on Foxley Lane are not one list.
