*Not* for me :D

Join the L & N in a choccy and test to E IMO

Errr well sorry but yes it does admin, what end of the table you are standing and looking at it as well 'matters', as upside down the flag is a S.O.S. signal. A anyway ;)

I've come across a good few houses with a 4mm taken off the ring nearest socket to bathroom to provide the supp, and occasionally it's been discovered off a JB under the floorboards in the under the bath vincinity. Parellel earth is where my quid is, although I like PC electrics offering as...

Building Inspectors, huh? :_| Sometimes it's easier to do a new circuit anyway, but if I was in an argumentive mood I think i'd photocopy the relevent part and hand it over, if he still insisted i'd tell him he's required to sign the design part of the cert :D

A nice accurate post by greenhornet, saves my typing fingers :D

Well I know there's a lot of unknowns here and that the work hasn't actually been done yet, according to OP, but (@Greenhornet) clearly the BI is overstepping his authority if he wants to investigate non notifiable works. Neither would there be a EIC for extending a ring, it'd be a MWC. "Most...

Nice one, cheers. Time to take it off soon? I mean 100 years now isn't it? I see the N'iron peeps have there own version of the St. George with an emblem in the middle so can't see they would object to the removal of it.

I went to a new build site (persimmons I think) for a days work to help a 'mate' out, the site agent came out to inspect everyones cscs cards, the 'electrician' had one, but a basic skills one, so the agent BANNED him from wiring anything lol :D However the apprentice had a ECS card so he let...

Anyone know the origin of the two corner to corner red crosses?

I sort of get the feeling that it's a "can't beat so might as well join them?" type of taking the plunge? lol That's how I felt anyway. (although I went with Elecsa) You do get a sort of relief feeling afterwards though, sort of I can't be nicked sensation. Building Inspectors are a lot...

New financial year, new part p schedule of fees. Whilst 70 or 80 quid notification fee for a rewire probably isn't too bad in the grand scheme, when Reading Council introduce a

My initial reaction is every flat is a seperate dwelling, so each needs their own bonds.

250k might well be enough for PI, 2m for PLI is plenty in my book... I've never heard of anyone actually claiming on it! So to me it seems llike just another piece of red tape. I'm sure there will be someone else along in a mo that is the one million to one proof that such policies are jolly...

Cheers paul I missread your reply and confused you with OP My original Q was based on 'professional's reply that insurance and registration was required, and worded in such a way that I thought it had all of a sudden become compulsory, legal and all that. Just so that I'm not misunderstood...

Paul, I understand the desirability of having PII but I didn't know that there had been a legal requirement introduced to have it, nor to be 'registered'. I understand the difference between PLI and PII. I also completely understand that various insurance companies won't accept a PIR if not...

I didn't say that they was? I confirmed (hopefully) that they don't comply? The fact that they exist is another matter.

No, quite. But rather than not answer... :) I was second guessing that the (user of the) rcbo circuits are perhaps for kitchen sockets that for *some particular reason* cannot be supervised and that RCBO was the designers way round it (CDM) But y'know it could just be "we ran out of mcb's...

Sorry, i'll get it right in a min lol it's 20 kA the setting sort of knew the 20 bit was right in the first reply :)
