He's not the messiah!...No bad mouthing the messahia please ......
Erm I mean mr cable
I thought part P had been scrapped? Wasn't it a bpec course? If so bpec are no longer
All pretty much true to form.I think the scams are a big problem. As has been pointed out on here many times before, farming out oversight of domestic electrical work to companies who make their money from the same people they are overseeing was an idiotic idea. But then that's what happens when government policy is in effect made by private companies (huh? You say? Hold on I'll explain...). Tarquin studied PPE at Oxford, he resided in the same college as daddy used to, who was bestest chums with Hugh Daddy-Oldmoney, now the Minister for x. Tarquin has finished at Oxford and needs something to do so daddy's chummy-whummy gives him a job as Special Adviser for x in the Department (he's clever chap don't you know, went to Oxford). Of course Tarquin is keen to make his mark, and won't let the fact he knows f**k all about anything in his policy areas stop him (after all the Minister doesn't know anything about anything either, and the minions - civil service fast streamers who also went to Oxford, or that other one - also know f**k all, I mean, they were hired because they're super super smart right? Not cause they've got any relevant subject knowledge or industry experience right?). So no one's going to embarrass Tarquin by showing up his lack of knowledge, and besides, daddy's other chum, who is the director at so and so big business has said it just so happens they are lending out experts for free to the government to give them advice. How jolly nice of them, I'll introduce them to the minions, thinks Tarquin. They can be on the focus group. Oh what's that? They're offering to give some help to the sector affected by my policy area, they'll even put up most of the money! Six months later, Tarquin's minion is raising concerns that, now he's gotten to know one or two others in the sector, that so and so big businesses motivation for doing this lovely thing to help Tarquin might not be pure as the driven snow. Tarquin dismisses this as poppycock (besides so and so big business produced a nice glossy report showing how well they're doing and how much everyone loves them) and is glad the minion is moving on to his next 6 month fast stream posting next week...
What I mean is, I thought it was not referred to anymore as "Part p" now its Level 3 certificate in the building regulations. 2393
How does gas safe work in pricipleIf part p was abolished i'd still be landing on a job with no certs etc , The point being its a start to clean up the trade like gas safe did . At the end of the day if your not doing your job right then These are the consequences. You now have to show certs to your rep etc and show compliance. How easy it was before being so lazy must be a good thing & also eventually consumers will stear clear of the wanna bees Getting you more work no?
so what happens for any building control eg we have part P but plumbers have another part of building regs to comply with.To put it simply there are no recommends/best practice or 6 suits to sign up to which incredibly includes Corgi !. Its 1 way or the highway. With Electrics its all interpritation x 6 . Dont get me wrong ' If it stays non statutory then we would hav no Forum LOL. Me Gas Safe +20
I was getting at more of how do you do the gas partI'm Reg'd for both so don't have the issue but Yer , Thats when the costs go up , ie 2x man hours . Say "250 per day on one job is a deal bracker for some
