Providing certs, help clearing this up

[Guitarist]

Maybe you read my thread wrong, I started this thread to see what I needed to sign off an installation as I have heard different things

What ruston said really. If you have carried out non-notifiable work as a "competent person", then you can test and issue certificates for that work. If you are carrying out notifiable work, such as supplies to outbuildings, CU changes, new circuits back to the CU, extensions to kitchen/bathroom wiring, etc, then you either notify LBC in advance or pay up and join a scheme.

We keep answering these questions, when really the search facility is your friend here!

Just been reading this post and it looks like some have gotten the wrong end of the stick

Looks like swainy has been doing non notifiable work but has been asked to do notifiable work which he has turned down.

You need to join Napit, NICEIC, ECA, BSI. All cost anything from £600 plus per year (BSI being the most expensive)


The other option is, is your fire alarm company Part P registered with any of the above - if they are ask if you can use that - they might say no or yes (at a fee)

Other option is to go to your LABC and sign it off that way - costs between £60 and £200 depending on your authority

Yes it is unless it is just maintenance or repairs and maybe a few other exceptions that have slipped my mind for now.

ok - I missread as quotes for kitchens

Kitchen Rewires are notifiable!

Can never understand why landlords ever want work doing for cash in hand. Surely if they are a reputable landlord or agent, they are declaring all their rental income so are surely wanting to offset any works against this each year.

Or am I in cuckoo land?
