Query regarding rules on certification

[Octopus]

Sorry Murdoch, Its just what I was told by NIC etc etc, not arguing the point at all

Not arguing but that's interesting if true. That said I've no interest in signing off somebody else's work

Read the thread up to the mention of NHBC....be assured that if they are steering the boat,dismay is guaranteed,they were the template for many a follow-on scheme scam...

surely this should be in the diy forum as the man has got his mate to ask the original question then when it gets a bit involved he comes into it as a non electrician

Yup. As I said can you point me at the rules? As far as I know this still hasn't been defined.

Thats my understanding as well Murdoch. The current EIC certification requires you to tick a number of boxes (such as routing of cables in zones) that you wouldn't actually know the answer to so I guess we're waiting for the correct 'new form' to be introduced for third parties to sign off. I wouldn't consider signing off anybody elses work until the 'new rules' are far more clear.

I'd be interested in the answer to the OP's other question as to whether an RCBO is required? Surely if its on its on MCB with RCD protection that is ok?
