Job is to install a spur of a RFC. Once installed I will issue minor works as should be done.
However, I was thinking, the r1+r2 value reading/test, is that from the spurred point or from the board?
Also another job I have is to replace some floor sockets that have been damaged. Sockets are on...
Having recently passed Domestic installers exams but not having set up a business or not yet working for an electrician, if i do some minor work for a family member, can i issue them with a Minor Works certificate i.e. with no company name on the document?
Good afternoon all,
Just newly qualified, so not registered with recognised body to do self certs. So having new kitchen fitted, and existing sockets in old cupboards just needed fitting into new cupboards. Fitter insisted that he needed a MWC so another sparky fitted sockets and raised MWC...
Hi there, just trying to find out some info regarding the issue of a minor works cert.
Having recently completed the 2395 course, I can carry out periodics, but wondered if I can issue a minor works cert or whether I have to wait until I have done my 2394 course ? Many thanks

Hi All, me again.

I was talking to a fellow spark today and he said I have gone about this wrong. But I disagree so I would like your opinions.

Hi,
I have been in discussion with a friend Regards minor works certs for a couple of jobs he did recently.
1. Move light (cable is not extended just moved 300mm using slack in loft)

He has insisted he is not altering the circuit and that it is...
Hi Guys,
Hope this is in the correct section. I just recently discovered that I am technically not allowed to install an extractor fan despite being outside of the special zones and would need an electrician to fit so they test and issue certificates. Now I have found clear information on what...

Downlights...

I've got a small office which was connected to a B32 MCB, inside the office it had a 2kW heater, 58W luminaire and 2 x double sockets.
The sockets and heater have been removed, just leaving the 58W luminaire.
Replacing the supply MCB from B32 to B6, would this warrant a minor works or would...
