[QUOTE="Lee Sparks, post: 332987, member: 9153"] Hi guys and gals, Long time no post. Hope we are all busy and doing well. I have a question regarding the building regulations/part p, concerning mains powered smoke and heat detectors. I have taken on a job that is in a nutshell to re-wire a new kitchen and conservatory and utility room. The original kitchen has been extended and the conservatory is new. I wanted to know if i need to offer mains voltage smoke/heat detectors in the new areas to pass the sign off process? I didnt know where i stood with this? I also dont plan to put in a new CSU, the one there is fine and was only installed in the last 6 months. So i will be adding to this new circuits in the above areas. By adding to the original CSU, do i have to make sure the whole house is now covered with heat/smoke detectors? If so, if i put in a small CSU just covering my new circuits plus detectors in the new areas mentioned above, can i just cert them and not wire in new ones around the house? Im in the process of joining the NICEIC as a part p domestic, so was going to use this job as one of the assesments. Cheers, Lee. [/QUOTE]
