But wrong in this case
. Lights fixed to the outside of the main house, and fed from an existing circuit are NOT notifiable. Still should be tested and a cert issued, and after 1st July possibly an rcd as well .
Just to clarify the above points
NICEIC pocket guide 8:
Notifiable work:-
GENERAL RULE;
Outdoors.
Installing garden lighting or power, shed/garage/outbuilding/gates/pond pump.
Installing a socket outlet.
installing a lighting point or other fixed current using equipment.
Proviso (the bit people don't read)
note 5. Notification is not required if wiring passes directly through the external wall into the equipment.
GENERAL RULE;
Approved Document P (6/4/06)
work in Special locations OR special installations e.g. Garden lighting or power installations.
Proviso (still the bit people don't read)
note i. Installation of equipment to the outside wall of a house e.g. security lighting is NOT notifiable providing there are NO exposed outdoor connections.
I read this as...
1 light OK
2 lights fed from external j/box Notify!?
Hope this helps de-mudify the water for thems what is confused...
