    Hi, this isn't exactly the right place for this but I didn't want to post this publicly ... I'm installing a solar-powered pump for an allotments (i.e. the whole site) and as far as I can work out there are no notifications I need to do, I've obviously kept it all to BS7671 and the 3rd Edition...

    EPC certification - Purely objective?

    Okay, we've got a bit of a strange one here. A potential customer of ours has an EPC rating of 'E', which was issued when she bought the house recently. The certificate, as standard, suggested works that would bring the home up to a D rating - none of which had been done. Another solar PV...

    Certification of a few different jobs.

    If a customer asks me to do a few jobs. E.g. Add some spots, add a socket and put a fan in a bathroom. As the only job notifiable to the labc would be the fan as its in a special location. Would you MW all jobs separately or all as one EIC and then let the building control deal with what's what?

    I went to a job today and the customer wanted his 4 way board moved 4 inches so that he could make the cupboard smaller to fit a bigger wardrobe, if you ever. I advised the time and material it would take he might as well put the money towards a half decent custom wardrobe with the wooden meter...

    Certification please help!

    I'm getting mixed reviews on what you need to do in regards to certification. I am a recently qualified electrician and have no part P, Napit, NIC etc but the firm I work for does so at the moment I have no real need to. But when it comes to my private jobs is it vital that all work no matter...
