Well there is no such thing as part P approved, so that is another thing he has got wrong.
Part P is a building regulation, that is all.
Really? So most electricians are wrong. Does not give one confidence.
4 mm 32 amp supply.
6mm 40 amp supply.
10 mm used to supply a whole house.
Perhaps Op meant he's Part P registered and has since been proved he's a NIC member
There is no such thing as being part P registered either. Part P is a building regulation, nothing more.

We all know what is meant my Part P registered/qualified...
I think its no secret that sparkies like to slag each other off
Do you have some work that needs doing, some plug tops installed perhaps?I don't. Because there is no such thing. It shows ignorance of the electrician that uses it. Would put me off using him/her wondering what else he/her was ignorant about.
As this thread clearly demonstrates the spark clearly has no clue about fusing.

Could get the Part P Qualified Spark to look at installing some LED Bulbs as well when he/she is there.
As I said there is NO SUCH THING as a part P qualified spark.
Isn't there a Part P exam that people have took?
Why would a 32A cause it to over heat and not a 40A as fitted. Surely the issue is whether the cable can take the current? If this is running at over 32A and the 6mm can take the current based on length and installation 40A must be correct? 32A wouldn’t cause overheat it would just trip.It is NOT dangerous, it is correct.
What would be dangerous is putting in a 32a MCB as it could overheat.

If you think the term 'Part P Registered' is bunkum, take a look at these search results:-
part p registered - Google Search - https://www.google.com/search?q=part+p+registered&client=firefox-b&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjk_ri9_ezgAhUSVBUIHeISC4sQ_AUIDigB&biw=1920&bih=903
Part P Registered is a phrase from the schemes and is used it seems to promote sparks who are registered with them who can carry out notifications. After all, Part P is the section of the building regs that requires us to notify, so the term 'Part P Registered' get's used to indicate a particular company can notify.
The Part P exam is C+G 2393, with the proper title being something like 'Building Regulations for Electricians' or words to that effect. But in common parlance it often gets called 'The Part P exam'.
