"C1 dangerous and must be rectified or isolated at once
C2 potentially dangerous and remedial works need completed ASAP this will also warrant a unsatisfactory report
C3 recommended for upgrade but are satisfactory and meet the electrical requirements standards
These will apply when you get your property inspecting like it should every 5-10 years depending on previous Certification or report this is now call EICR which in turn mean condition report
Kind regards

"Hi the fault codes are
C1- imminent danger or risk of injury remedial work needs to take place immediately, (eg a broken socket front that has exposed live parts that could be touched)
C2-not as serious as C1 but does still pose a risk to become a danger in the future and needs remedial work to take place to correct the issue
C3- basically recommending a improvement to be made but doesn’t pose immediate risk
FI- is further investigation into a problem"
