fault finder

[simpson93]

just a question guys
to my knowledge this is what non notifiable work is , correct me if im wrong
-replace fittings such as sockets and switches and light fittings
-replace of cable for a single circuit where it has been damaged

with this could you become a domestic fault finder/fixer and not need any quals at all?

You do not need to have any qualifications to call yourself an electrician. However, you do need to be able to prove that you are competent when designing/installing new or replacement circuits, and holding qualifications goes some way (but not completely) to proving your competence. But to answer your question, yes, you can call yourself an electrician and just take on jobs replacing sockets and light fittings or sections of damaged cabling without holding any qualifications.

That's correct, in fact you don't need any quals at all to do electrical work! But I'd like to see someone defend themselves in court if they did something wrong.
