NIC domestic installer assessment?

[Stever_777]

Hi Guys,

I want to fit a new shower circuit to a family members house so I can be assesed on it. It is a counsel house. My question is as well as me notifying local building control for them to come out and inspect and test my work, would my family member also have to get permission from the counsel to have to shower installed, and if she didnt get permission would that be an issue with building control coming out to test my work?

By the way I spoke to my LBC and they want £274 to come and inspect and test for each job I`m to be assesed on.

yes you can

use a double pole fcu as if you get a fault, say, with water in the outside light, you can isolate both L and N, thus saving having RCD tripping half the house. also useful for maintenance purposes.

Sorry to hijack your post but I'm looking to get my part p aswell. I've got the company I work for to sign mine off. I've done the testing for it but is that ok for the nic assessor.

think the assessor will want to see certs. signed by you. as it is, there's nothing to tell him that you've installed and tested the job.

Could we not both sign the testing & inspection? Having shared responsibility? As if you look carefully it does say "I/we being the person(s) responsible for the inspection & testing....." I'm sure this could be good news for us trying to make it.

I suppose it would be another story to convince the assessor that it is ok.

What type of biscuits and tea should I serve.
