It may be a condition of your insurance policy that all wiring complies with
the IEE wiring regulations (which call for periodic inspection and test). I
haven't heard of a claim being refused on these grounds, but it's possible.


I've never heard of that: with such a clause the majority of house
insurance policies would be invalid. I dont think it would be a
tenable position.
