[QUOTE="tomsw18, post: 502308, member: 33218"] You could be right. I've seen somewhere that it is 'recommended' to include at least one new circuit. Me and the neighbours are in a new build and there's no spare ways in the 20 way consumer units so that rules that out! It really is a chicken and egg situation isn't it. Who is going to let someone new loose on their premises in order to get certified. The whole point of the new legislation is to encourage only using competent workers, but it kind of restricts that at the beginning. I know a few factories well where I could definitely go and install a new circuit, but they're not within the 30 min distance the assessors require. 30 mins inside the South Circular in London is about a mile during the day.
