If the other end of the cable was *completely* removed from the CU, it's not part of the electrical

I'm not /sure/ that is a complete answer given the way "electrical
installation" is defined differently for BS7671 and for the regulations
for landlords:
SI 2010/2214 (applied by SI 2020/312): €œelectrical installation€� means
fixed electrical cables or fixed electrical equipment located on the
consumer's side of the electricity supply meter;

But if it's disconnected it's not "located on the consumer's side of the electricity supply meter".

Otherwise my Wylex fuseboard would be an immediate EICR fail. It is purely decorative. I think I can admit to having a fuseboard for decorative purposes here without being laughed at.

The fire alamrm company I worked for in the 90's removed some
interesting old fuse boards from various BT exchanges that were
made of fancy dovetailed mahogany with bakelite boards and nice
brass fittings.
