    Ok one last reply before bed. Your actually making my point for me. My point is those people are taking the time to find out and learn and are concerned to get it right and to expand on their knowledge so that they can find & fix these faults. They have had some input and are now trying to get...

    I agree with what you are saying and I'm not saying it's stopped DIY Dave but I am saying its reduced it. I understand your point about the fast track training thing not always being adequate but to the right person it can be. When part p was introduced originally I too thought the same as many...

    Actually no they don't and the list is not endless... 1. Smoking causes 2. White goods such as dishwashers, washing machines & tumble dryers 3. Electrical installations.

    The home office is the place to get that info but speaking from experience I've seen many of these fires first hand. I am a firefighter and most of these fires were from plastic units installed before part p or by non registered people.

    Thats simply not true as its part of my job to accurately report these figures and I've seen first hand the positive effect part p has had. I know you love to hate it because it's an expense and a inconvenience to be tested etc... but you can't change the facts that it has made things safer.

    First off mate no I am not saying you are incompetent at all. Second you wouldn't message tilt have found out if any of your installs had ever caught fire (I'm sure they haven't though) my point is your a fully qualified spark and install very safe work, the semi trained Tescos guy will install...

    Well if I could be bothered I could gather the stats from work for you or you could take my word for it. Tell me, before regulation if you left a loose connection in a property miles from where you lived and it burnt to the ground. Would you have ever known about it? The answer is no. I however...

    Sure some Cowboys can slip through the net but on the whole the regulation has brought about a reduction in poor installs mainly by the fact that even if someone has done a short inadequate course then passed a test and got registered they are better than Mr DIY with no experience.

    Sorry but you obviously are making this up and not speaking from experience. I however am and a far larger proportion of these fires originated from uncertified work carried out by non registered people.

    Proof of what?

    I'll tell you why... because now all fires are more accurately reported to the home office about their exact cause. General numbers of electrical fires are down but a high percentage of fires caused by electrical installations begin and spread from plastic consumer units.

    Because you need to notify. I love how people call it a scam. It's regulated and safer.
