Hi everyone,
I'm looking at doing Part P course and 17th edition either end of March or later in the year. I have been on the electrical forum for advice, to be honest it's just confused me more.
Do I need Part P/17th edition to doing electrical work that is required in plumbing?
If not what exactly do I need? Ideally someone reading this does the sparky side of things on their own jobs and can tell me exactly what qualifications they have.
I have been told I also need to register with a scheme provider to be able to sign off/cert my own work, If anyone can elaborate on this or just give me a dummies guide it would be appreciated.
How about testing and inspections certificate?
The thing is I don't want to waste money on qualifications unless they are absolutely neccessary!
Sorry if this post seems a little vague or i'm waffling i'm just being told different things by different people.
As wirepuller says
To self certify you will need to register with a scheme provider who normally ask for Part p, 17th Edition and a testing and inspections cert. Check with anyone of them (NICEIC, NAPIT ........etc) as to what qualifications they require
Another way is, if the work has to be notified to Building Control then tell before the job starts and pay the fee for them to inspect and register your work.
Or find a friendly spark
