Hi all
Went to a Newly Built Granny-Flat last week on behalf of MK's Switch Exchange Program
Opened the CU to find
Certificates:
Gave the Electrician a call - details found in designer section only - asked for his registration number - reply "C&G 2382 and C&G 2391 I think!"
Asked for NAPIT, NICEIC, etc - reply what are they!
He recalls wiring the house - he didn't know he had to be registered
Called LABC - their reply:
Customer spent £85,000 for this build
Electrician is from Manchester Area - Worked down in Pembrokeshire, Wales on this one job
I don't know if I can post the name of the construction company or Electrician - MODs advise please
