On that basis then;

First thing you need to do is check your employment T's & C's to see if your current employer will allow you;
a, to run another business whilst an employee
b, run an electrical business whilst an employee.

If that is what you were asking why didn't you state that in your OP?

All you need in this case is the 17th ed qual and a wad of cash to give to a scheme provider of your choice!!

Oh and if you're bothered, .....what snowhead has pointed out above, with regards to your present employers standing!!!
