Wondering if you would be able to help me out with a query that I have with complying with BS7671 and Part P of the building regs.
If BS 7671 is not fully complied with does that automatically mean that Part P is not complied with?
This is my query!
I know that it says in BS 7671 that if it's not obvious as to what equipment an isolator isolates then it should be labelled. Now in a domestic property it can be fairly obvious what isolator does what. However if the isolator is not labelled and it's not obvious what equipment it isolates, some could say that it does comply with BS 7671. But does that mean that it does not comply with Part P?
I know this is a non serious query in relation to the grand scale of things but it's something that has been mentioned and I was intrigued as to what the answer would be.
I know compliance with Part P is mandatory in a domestic install but BS 7671 is not mandatory but it's said that if a spark complies with everything in BS7671 then they would meet the requirements of Part P.
