I had a chat about the existing warranty system with the elecsa man the other day. He told me that of 70 000 jobs registered in 2011 only 12 warranties were sold which essentially renders the whole thing pointless, which is what I thought from the start.
The warranty is essentially there so that if a contracter has gone through someones house and cut a 6inch hole through every joist, as you do, and then they all snap simaltaneously and the walls cave in, as they do, and the contracter has folded his firm so there is no longer a public liabily insurance policy for the client to claim on, then they can apparently use the elecsa warranty to cover the cost of building a new house.
If however the contracter has done a rough old wiring job and the house burns down, the client is apparently not covered by the warranty!!!?????
This is how he explained it to me anyway.
So from what I gather the warranty is only there to protect them from the house falling down due to non electrical work carried out by the electrician and only if the firm has previously gone bust.
Its all a load of nonsense if you ask me, I dont see why they dont just scrap the whole scheme.
