Basically a property has two electrical supplies. (It used to be two flats, now one property).
Client wants to keep both consumer units, with one as a sub main off the other.
There is not a whole amount on the top floor board as the kitchen etc is downstairs.

I've been told at my new job that I need to conduct a minor cert if I replace Electric shower, light switch, and socket etc.

Hi all,
I've been asked to provide an EIC some two years after the work was completed.
I did a cert at the time but the client claimed not to have received it. He now wants a guarantee of electrical safety.
OK so no problem getting a copy of the cert. It was a paper version but even so, I did a...

Good afternoon all,
Just newly qualified, so not registered with recognised body to do self certs. So having new kitchen fitted, and existing sockets in old cupboards just needed fitting into new cupboards. Fitter insisted that he needed a MWC so another sparky fitted sockets and raised MWC...
i've just replaced a bathroom light and extractor fan. Both items supplied correctly for use in these areas.
The fuse board is quite dated and has an RCD but it is marked up as for sockets only.

I am really struggling with the section 7 of the Napit Installation Cert.
The reason is because the demo forms I have filled in during the course and examples elsewhere all seem to contradict eachother and it appears many people can't agree either. So by going through forums and looking at...
Had a job last night upgrading the main earthing conductors to 16mm and replacing a faulty RCCB at clients reuqest (after recommendations from another sparky who carried out an EICR at the shop).

Hi there, just trying to find out some info regarding the issue of a minor works cert.
Having recently completed the 2395 course, I can carry out periodics, but wondered if I can issue a minor works cert or whether I have to wait until I have done my 2394 course ? Many thanks

I know there have been a few threads in the past but thought I would get some current opinions.
At the moment we do all our certs on Niceic pads by hand and it is becoming a pain so I am looking at buying some software as we do a lot of large Ind/commercial eicrs and I am sure there are better...
I have had some work done in our home but is is taking a long time getting the relevant certificates from the electrician.
I eventually received three Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificates covering much of the work. There is however still a significant one missing and I am at a loss...
Hi again :cool:
