These regs are getting ever sillier ! Where does it say you have to sing every time you finish a job ?:leaving:

If you plan to do notifiable work then joining a scheme/scam does make business sense.

Stroma are £288 per year - so give them a call or you could try Napit, Elecsa, NICEIC, Trustmark, etc etc

Sorry Mike. All of the 'scams' are easy enough to join as long as you have the required bits of paper, proper calibrated test equipment and pay the fee. You also need to be confident in your work and show them a job you've done complete with appropriate certification - this can even be in your own home though for the initial assessent. A look on their websites will inform you far better of exact requirements though.

Its about a medium size pain. Think about how many notifiable jobs you are doing (or plan to do) and decide if you are willing to put up with an uninvited guest once a year in order to get those jobs.

That's cobblers. It should all be just as it should be, so how can they find something wrong if it's all right ?

You may get picked up on issues if they are not compliant or maybe not to the best standards but they don't have to find something wrong.

The "only" thing they are good at, is making sure you have all the insurances, calibration and up to date regs ..... which many of the cowboys simply don't have .....
