    Cps &iet

    Don't know if I'm being over critical, with the onset of the 17th IET Regulations the term Competent Person (CP), has been dropped in favour of Skilled Person (SP), yet we still call the schemes NICEIC etc CP Schemes. Should it not be SP Schemes?

    Certification of smoke/heat detector installation

    Guys/gals, in a domestic install of smoke/heat detectors, beyond issuing an EIC or Minor Works, do any of you also issue any other form of "fire alarm" certification? If yes, what do you issue? Many thanks.

    Certification of plug in lights

    Wondered what your thoughts were, changing light fittings, plugging into existing 5A sockets. Not altered any fixed wiring. How much testing would you do? What certification? If you installed a TV and plugged in to a 13A socket would you certify?
