first and foremost you need public liability. if doing eicr's then prof. indemnity also. then approach one of the scams, nic, elecsa, napit, etc., and suss out the best for you.

What level of public liability would I need? How much up to?

Will you be joining a CPS scheme to notify work to building control ?

£2million for domestic. you mat need £5million if doing industrial.

bear in mind that you only need the cps scam membership for notifiabe work. this is basically, new circuits, CU changes, and any work in special locations ( bathrooms etc.).

Only need to register for cps for new domestic installs.

another eh ?

You only need to register with a scam for notifiable work on domestic installs only ie rewires/new builds/db changeovers/new circuits ect.. I think you all know that and can stop playing the smartass card as i worded it poorly.

I genuinely thought you meant new build only because of the way you worded it. No smartass anything about it.

Yes it was poorly worded and rushed response, appologise for not being thorough in that post to the OP. Been a loong week.

"Join a competent persons scheme so that I can notify building control through that scheme for jobs I do outside of my normal work."
