Now to play devils advocate if he changes LIKE FOR LIKE he could do it?

A new CU is not like-for-like, your changing fuses for MCB's or RCBO's in most scenarios. Therefore, the circuit protective devices have different characteristics so there is a fundamental change to the operating conditions.

Did I raelly write that? Blushing Must have the sober head on at the moment. Need more :Y

If you decided (in a silly moment) to change your kitchen florry light for a five-arm chandelier with dimmer switch, I think this would also be notifiable.

Or certifiable? You choose.

Did you mean certifiable as in 'electrically certifiable' or 'fruitcake certifiable'?

Your five-arm chandelier in a kitchen might qualify for the latter!
