NAPIT Certification Scheme Napit, NICEIC, Elecsa?

The third party part is getting electricians doing the job of building control inspectors as they are so overwhelmed all you are doing is allowing electricians inspecting at each stage or that's how it should be being done .Is there any forum members out there who undertake third party?.

I just wonder if they are getting 'overwhelmed' or as I suspect nobody gives a Scooby on what is actually being altered, added or new being installed, unless it goes horribly wrong, which is if it does is only mentionable or publishable if someone gets hurt or there's a prosecutable case easily achieved case to answer?

NICEIC and Elecsa are the same company, Certsure. This is the premier organisation. Any contractor who values their name will only use this organisation. Think John Lewis and Del Boy. Whatever your fees are they go through your books, tax allowance.

So Certsure is not a scam then?

Putting to one side the approved contractor scheme for a moment,if you are referring to their domestic installer scheme then you have to be joking big time

In the domestic sector any particular scam name is almost irrelevant

I'm in Elecsa approved contractor scheme, which if I was with NICEIC, this would be a domestic installer, I suspect.

Have to say, I've never been asked to provide my scheme credentials by my customers. Only been asked a few times 'if I can sign things off'.

I would agree with Des, in the domestic sector, the public have very little knowledge of schemes.

You don't need Part P compliance for commercial or industrial works as long as there are no living areas attached to the premises, however I have to say that people are getting the message about part p works and signing off but in my experience they have heard about NICEIC although they don't know anything about it. They usually ask are u NIC registered and not Part P compliant.
It is interesting as I've been an niceic QS for 18+ years but now I find myself having to go self employed and have to start up from scratch and trying to justify the fees needed to join.
