Hello, Could anyone who knows answer this question. Thanks in advance
Is it the case that if you are not registered with a relevant Part P organisation then you can:
Go on a 5 day Part P course and pass.
When you come to do a job, you inform the LBC and pay their fee.
You issue the cert for the job along with your Part P certificate No. to the LBC.
Job done.
Is that the process finished. ie the LBC deems you competant and does not come to inspect your work. They accept your Part P cert as proof of competance.
The reason I ask is this.
I have passed my 2330 L3, 17th and 2391. I passed my NIC domestic asessment last week. Guiness Drink
During the summer I built an extension for a customer. However they would not let me sign off the work without being Part P, and as they had not inspected the work, they would not accept my installation certification.
Today I popped round to see a friend who is building his own extension. He is L2 qualified only (no 17th). He is carrying out his own installation work alongside a guy from his work who has done one of these 5 day Part P courses. His mate had done the first fix on the lighting and TBH it was a mess.There were JB's everywhere, masses of twisted cables everwhere,outer sheaths not taken into JB's, not one cable clipped- you get the picture.
The proposed shower/toilet room (6' x 4' with no window) was wired so that a 12v combined over-run fan and light was operated with one pullcord and another light operated with a seperate pullcord. I pointed out to my mate that should anyone take a dump in there, it may be a long time before the stink evaporated, unless they operated the shower light, due to the lack of air change. The long and short of it is, I rewired that part for him doing away the JB's and the two pullcord affair.
When I asked if the council had inspected any of it, my mate said No. All his mate does is, pay the LBC fee and issue his Part P pass certificate Number. along with the installation cert.Job done. I couldn't believe it TBH. Is this the case?
Sorry for the long post. Cheers.
P.S. Mr Part P is not 17th either.
