Hi All
I am carrying out work for a company and currently fill in my test certs by hand. The company have asked me to give them test certs that are computer generated. My tester is a megger 1720 so it hasnt got blue tooth. Is there software that allows me to use my tester but still fill in a...
I'm sure this has been asked before, and I have done some searching here, but not quite sure how to phrase it to search properly.
I have just completed some minor works on a property installed to the 16th, i.e. no rcd's on lighting. The client required replacement of existing ensuite lighting...
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...
Can anyone help me regarding certification. Im thinking of starting up on my own and joining the NICEIC domestic scheme. on there website it says they need certification of jobs from the previous 12 months to show them in the assessment. How am i to do this if i haven't been able to sign work...
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...
I've recently passed my first scheme provider (ELECSA) assessment and I'm considering what certification software to go for, so hopefully you guys will be willing to share your experiences, I couldn't find a sticky/poll. I realise this is a regular question asked, but as technology moves with a...
Hi guys,
This is my 3rd post to the forums and concerns electrical regulations and specifically certification. I have recently had a new en-suite fitted, and the quotation included
“Electrician to supply and install new fuse spur in roof space for new shower”
“The price is subject to survey...
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...
Hi all - I've just had a new electric shower and extractor installed by a builder. I understand that I am meant to receive an Electrical Certificate these days, for all new electrical work done in the bathroom. The builder and an electrician came today to do the certificate, but he has told me...
Hi ereryone in advance.
I've been called to a shop in a petrol station on Saturday, it is a job referral from a trades friend, he told me that the council had had the electrical supply cut off, due to no certification and that the power was running on a generator at the moment, as the petrol...
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...
Hi, I have always made sure my installs have no departures from bs7671 but I'm doing a ccu change next week and have done some preliminary testing and the heating circuit (boiler and heating controls) has low IR readings, had a look in all obvious places and cant find any problems, had trouble...
Just interested in what are the requirements for working on electrical installations. I was under the impression only electricians could carry out works. But on reading posts on this forum it seems anyone with a weeks testing certificate can do work. I'm based in Glasgow, Scotland so whats...
Hi all, my first proper post,
I am a ex military spark, looking to get back into it after a couple of years in the CIED world. I have 2360 Pt1 & Pt2, and 236 Course C, 2391 and 2381 (16th), obviously I need to update to 17th edition. Whilst looking for courses I found this course for a shade...
