Discuss House rewire - no certificate ????? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
Absolutely no need to be in a scheme to issue a certificate. All that is required is that you are a competent person. You can download and fill it out yourself if you wish, but if you are not competent in electrical work then it's not worth the paoaer it's written on. As for the building control side of things I can't comment as I have no experience of domestic work in the UK.Thanks for all the replies.
I find it hard to believe that anyone can issue a Certificate, if this is the case then I could download a blank certificate and fill it in myself ?
Surely an unregistered electrician should not be issuing a Certificate, otherwise what is the point of any electrician joining a scheme ?
I have been told to ensure that electricians are registered before allowing them to carry out any work.
I will need to check to see if the work has been notified to building control., and by whom
Sparky 1 ( who is registered ) tells me HE has notified building control, so presume that is fine if he has done so.
The heading on the certificate from sparky 2 simply reads : DOMESTIC ELECTRICALINSTALLATION CERTIFICATE .
it shows that sparky 2 id responsible for the DESIGN the CONSTRUCTION and the INSPECTION AND TESTING of the installation.
I am not sure of the working relationship between sparky 1 and sparky 2,
Sparky 1 was originally going to do the work with his apprentice but as his apprentice had to go back to college he ended up getting help from sparky 2
hope that answers your queries
I'm making no comment about your skills as obviously I've no clue.I find it hard to believe that anyone can issue a Certificate, if this is the case then I could download a blank certificate and fill it in myself ?
