Hello guys,
I want to get registered as a domestic installer and I have a few questions. First of all which one do you think is better NICEIC or NAPIT? Second question is about the assessment, I know I have to show them some of my work, the problem is that I have talked with my boss about it, and he don't want let me do that, because once I will get registered as a domestic installer, he thinks he will have to pay me more, and he don't want that. At the moment he is the one who is certifying my work. I am thinking to do something simple at home, where I leave. I want to install some garden lights in the garden, just to make a new circuit, with a 16 A MCB, and a fused connection fitted outside on a roofed terrace, and in that FCU connect a 24VDC Power supply and from there go with SELV to the garden lights outside (everything waterproof of course) . Do you think this circuit will be enough for the assessment? And What do I need to do about certifying this circuit, my landlord leaves outside UK, I have spoke with him on the phone and he seems to agree with that, but I am not sure who need to notify the work to Building Control me or the landlord? I know I can get a registered third party electrician to certify my work, but I am not sure if at the assessment they need the work to be certified by a registered electrician, and tested by me, or just tested by me. Is the assessor going to contact the building control, about the work or not?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
