Consumer unit change

[Frankensteinscat]

Hi everyone. I currently have a level 2 diploma, Part P and 18th edition. Can I carry out a consumer unit change if I work for myself privately?

The Part P doesn’t allow to me to sign off work. Can consumer units be changed under the Part P qualification or does it need to be certified afterwards?

Can you test and sign it off and notify building control....if not ...NO, unless you get BC involved first and they sign it off

I think it has been said many times before, Part P isn't an actual electrical qualification it is one part of the building regulations. The courses that allude to Part P is a course that will potentially equip you to pass one of the certification scheme assessments. You will need to be a member of one of these schemes to notify a consumer unit or or, as MarkyD said, get local Building control involved at the earliest opportunity.
I always think that there will potentially be house insurance issues too if the job hasn't been notified to the appropriate people.
