    Hi Sean
    Municipalities and Eskom are wanting to ensure that somebody responsible has installed the cable and will take responsibility if something goes wrong- The COC is not quite the correct form but they tend to use it as a tool to cover themselves.
    I would ensure that section 3 comments is filled in to say that the coc covers the installation/replacement of the main cable from point of supply to point of control and fill in the readings once power is switched on.
    To cover myself further , in section 3 comments, I would state that their is an existing COC in place or alternatively that I have notified the owner of his responsibility to obtain a COC for the complete installation - You could also state that you have submitted a quotation to test the complete installation and supply a list of faults and are awaiting go ahead.
    To me, you would have then covered yourself against any possible come back
