  • This survey is to determine the condition of the cabling and carry out a network assessment across selected Virgin Media MDU installations that are under 18m high and were pre-wired prior to 2015. Where ever possible this is a non-intrusive condition survey. However, your assessment and responses are to be based on what you need to access to respond to the questions in the survey below. But, at no time should you take any risks to your personal safety in completing the survey. You are required to inspect entry holes to premises made as part of a VM installation, this includes removing and reaffixing trunking that restricts inspection of a hole. If you see or are made aware of, damage to internal fire partitions where Telecommunication cables pass through a partition you should include this in your survey report at section 5.1. Due to the changes in the BS7671:2015 internal wiring regulations (which give requirements for the methods of support of wiring systems throughout an installation in fire escapes and fire exits), Regulation 521.11.201 (applied in 2015) requires that cables should be adequately supported against their premature collapse in the event of a fire by metal cable clips etc. More recently BS7671:2018 wiring regulation has replaced the wording 'escape routes' with 'access or egress routes' in regulation 521.10.202 (applied in Jan 2019). It is important to note that during this survey programme you will assess installations that were completed before these requirements were enacted and which were appropriate at the time the installation was completed and which continue to be acceptable if they are in good condition.
