Life after Napit/NICEIC?

[7029 dave]

I'll let you know. Not renewed my NAPIT this year, absolutely pointless.

All anyone asks for is the test certs. Just had a job where the building control is asking for the cert so asked them why, goes onto tell me so they can allow the electrics to be notified through them

I've done loads of jobs where i've forgotten to forward certificates and to notify, never ever been pulled up for it.

Dare I ask are you going it alone and doing all kinds of jobs including notifiable work, without being in a CPS

Well you have two choices keep the work through membership or lose the work.

As of now, I'm quite confident that I won't lose much. Never in 19 years has anyone asked if im Part P registered.

Just the once in my case, and that was when a state of all out war existed between the client and building control.

That will be interesting David.. Try to remember to update this thread in a year or so

On occasion, my builder has been asked to ask me to send through my Napit registration number so the building authority can check that i am registered. This is the main thing that is bothering me about not being registered. Not being able to carry out larger work for the builder. It's a good team and I like being part of it.

But you said you were winding down ? So you won't really want these jobs. I'm in exactly the same position as you, same age too. I'm only working a few days now and turn the bigger jobs down so thinking I don't need the CPS. It's a difficult thought
