UK Do I need a Minor Works or Electrical Installation Report?

[Wuddy3012]

Hi guys just looking for a bit of clarification.

Im about to start a job in a kitchen thats being renovated and theres a couple of electrical alterations. A new cooker + hob replaced like for like, and an old switched spur on a radial circuit that controlled a heater is being made into a single socket as the heater is no longer needed. Both circuits will be moved to the RCD side of the Consumer Unit. My question is do i need to issue a Minor Works or an EIC? My personal opinion is a Minor works because I’m not adding a new circuit as the regs say, im only moving a circuit somewhere else in the Consumer Unit which is only an alteration.

Answers are appreciated

Cheers

MWC. And a few more words...

MWC for each circuit.

MWC, but paperwork wise it might be quicker and easier to do an installation cert because you wont have to duplicate as much.

Consider RCBO's as may end up with too many circuits on the one RCD which maybe more of an inconvenience than a non-compliance.
