Hi everybody
I want to register with niceic domestic installer scheme. They advised me to do two jobs (fully installed, inspected tested and certified) under the name of my business. I am fully qualified to do insp/testing (2391) but for certification i have to go through council. When i...
I am a competent electrician and have all of my certificates, nvq3 etc I have also passed my 2391, can I sign off domestic jobs or do I need to do part p etc?? I am not with the nic eic or a governing body either, some people say I can and some say I can't
Hi people,
When notifying work on the niceic website I pay £1.50 to notify it then £1.50 for a guarantee. My question is can you get rid of the guarantee payment and how? Im doing a lot of single circuits for a new contract so although it doesn't seem a lot it will quickly add up over time...
Is there a way to find out if a job has been notified/pending to building control eg.online or is the only way to wait for the actual certificate to be posted to the customer cheers

Am I doing right by issuing and EIC before my assessment with napit and being able to notify it if and went I pass. I've heard this is true but doesnt seem right
Hi Guys,
We have a request to install 15 Suntech 245's (3.68kWp) on a due-South facing, 35 degree pitched roof in Devon.
As the Suntech's have power output of up to +5%, I feel an SB4000-TL would be a good match.
Would I still need to do a stage 2 application, or as the array is only 3.68kWp...
We are installing our 1st install for our MCS, its under 4kw so ive been told we dont need to contact or inform my energy provider until after the install?

Hi all. I just passed my accreditation with the NICEIC as PV installer, so this is to introduce myself and to seek all your wisdom on something I can't fathom. Apologies to all if this is covered on previous posts, but I couldn't find it.
Having done my own (small 6 panel ) PV system as my...
We are an NICEIC approved contractor, but we dont do domestic work generally, we do industrial predominantly with the odd office here and there.
Anyway, I'm the QS for our firm (17th ed, 2391 cert etc) and have converted my loft into a bedroom, new stairwell all finished. Its all been above...
Have been completely rewiring a house where the builder (owner) has totally gutted the place. The only thing original is the outside walls. He's a retired guy and is doing the work to move into the house himself. Long story short, he tell's me he hasn't got any planning permission for the...
