LABC building control fees for Part P work!

[SPECIAL LOCATION]

Following discussion on other post..

Thought I may be useful to have a reference area for LABC charges etc..

re Part P electrical work...

Both as a cross reference for sparks who may be doing notifiable jobs

and/or any other DIY looking at notifying & getting council to certify work.

Perhaps if guys in other areas could stick up links to their LABC dept websites...

we maybe could get a comprehensive set of links covering most of the country?? ?:|

(or maybe not... lets try & see? )

Anyway heres my input....

same price across the board even if you are competent to provide all relevent certificates.

it makes me wonder then why should i test and sign when they could do it for a diy guy for the same price X(X(X( X(

They send an electrical firm round to test.

[Mr Sworld]

This is an update for Brighton and Hove.

After talking to the firm who tests for them I have discovered that if LABC are happy with the test certificate a non Part P spark supplies and consider you 'compedent' they will accept the installation without further testing and inspection.

Happy days!

Hi all, here is the link for Maidstone BC regarding Build. regs.

http://www.digitalmaidstone.co.uk/planning__building_control/building_control/building_regs__documents.aspx#Fees

Question though, it states that they need an 'Electrical Installation diagram', has anyone got any ideas on a realistic way of doing this as I am not sure what they would want ?????? Thanks

Oh ek!..

even these small number of posts seems to show varied & diverse charging and procedural methods between the various LABC's??? ?:| ? :|

Wonder if the drawings are building plan type drawings ?

or

Just a basic sort of labelled block diagram..

e.g.

MCB 32a radial 6.0mm Cooker

MCB 40a Radial 10.0mm Shower

MCB 32a Ring 2.5mm Sockets

MCB 6a Radial 1.5mm Lights etc.. etc... ?? ?:| ? :| ?:|

 

[jus306]

Hi all, dont know what they want, might ring or e-mail them in the week see if they can give me an example.

Anyone else seen this before?????

No part P here, but thought I would post a few links regarding electrical works (building warrants)

Note they all sat the same stuff, but the third goes on for pages.

It's no self cert up here (and client to pay for certification and inspection)

NIEIEC or SELECT (ECA)
