Domestic Installer Or Not?

[Blue Duck]

I should have pointed out that the majority of DI's aren't Muppets just a few giving the rest of us a bad name.

DIs have a bad reputation because corners were cut to bring lesser qualified persons into the trade. There is a clear two tier system nowadays but the unsuspecting public have no idea and see the NICEIC badge and think they are getting a really well trained electrician. Explain to me how anyone in under 3-4 years can be competent fully to undertake work alone in someone's property?

Id say anyone who has been training/on the tools for 3 to 4 years and is not yet competent to work alone in someones property hasn't been listening properly.

But then what do I know? im just a lowly DI (ck)
