He has to cover his arse. They often tell people to have drain
inspections when nothings wrong. 80s wiring is not a cause for
concern.

That's a very sweeping statement. How can you say it is not a cause for
concern?? Have you inspected every eighties electrical installation in
the
country

The fact that its 1980s is not a cause for concern.

Obviously that doesnt preclude problem for other reasons.

Why ask the d--- obvious? If the OP were retarded I dont think theyd be
sat here asking these questions.

Indeed. The initial question was one of deterioration of wiring over a
period of time, I think the response was more along the lines of 1980's
electrics being fairly durable and as such should not have deteriorated
unduly unless they have been exposed to exceptional conditions (i.e.
connections arcing due to them being too loose, etc).

Granted, the wiring my not have deteriorated since the 1980's but the
terminations may have done, and in my experience PVC cale down break down,
the termination points do. So to go back the the OP, have a periodic done
by a competent sparks and ct on the information given.
