new light circuit and certification

momeebuilder · Dec 15, 2008

Hi,
I have recently applied for DIS NICEIC, I don’t have much experience in certification..

I have to replace a lighting circuit in bedrooms, existing circuit is completely dead..
Well my question is after completing the job which certificate do I have to use,, Minor Installation or full installation.
Any help will be grateful

New circuit, electrical installation certificate.

I remember what the instructor said to me: if the electrical work carried out doesn't involve adding or changing a protective/overload device, then it's a minor works certificate with tests limited to the circuit you've worked on. If you do change or add one, then it's a full installation certificate.

Installing any new final circuits is as andyb has said requires and EIC.

For lighting points added to an existing circuit this would require a MWC.
