    Is bathroom underfloor heating still notifiable?

    All the specific guidance I can find stating that underfloor heating is notifiable seems to refer to an outdated version of Part P, and I’m trying to understand why generally everywhere still treats it as notifiable.

    Napit.. Do you still choose the job, or do they?

    On the Napit certification page there is a little tick box, saying something along the lines of ' I consent to this job being used for my assessment '. Does this mean Napit makes its own choice, from that list, or do we still choose which job is used for the assessment?

    AM2, is there anything you forgot to do and still passed?

    Hello everyone. I've been reading stories of people failing their AM2 on section B initial verification. I'm going back in my head and I think I forgot to functional test the solar. The assessor wasn't always in the room, and if he was he wasn't watching us that closely. My question is, how...

    Can a glow plug has no continuity & resistance but still short a circuit?
