    1970's Wiring Modification and My Liabilities?

    I certainly will, all my communications have a footer that clearly states to all my customers that albeit I'm qualified and working to 17th edition any Part P/MW need certifying and the two options they have are to use a registered Spark or contact LABC and as the Homeowner the onus is upon...

    1970's Wiring Modification and My Liabilities?

    LOL, definitely feeling this Shanky. Never got the whole RFC thingy. Bulb Vs Lamp, I'm with the majority on but I'm afraid it was always a ring circuit and to a lesser degree a Megger during my college/apprenticeship. The £350 is surprising for the LABC fee's but that's not part of my quote...

I hate appearing to be "making more work" for myself but think the customer is happy all my recommendations are necessary...

    1970's Wiring Modification and My Liabilities?

    Helpful and constructive advice only please. I appreciate this inquiry isn't ideal. As a mainly petrochemical Sparky I've been asked to help a mate out re-do a 1970's kitchen. I would love to avoid this job like the plague as, as ever it's all being done on a budget and as minimal hassle as...
