Discuss Carrying out work with NO Part P in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Hi all,

Could someone list what work i'm able to carry out without my Part P, thanks!
(i've tried google but nothing! haha)
WTF Part P is a stuffin building regulation. Jeez what is our trade coming too?? The part P qualification, is something the scams have come up with to make money for them and the numerous training facilities they are allied to, imo.
 
As @Pete999 has pointed out, Part P is part of the building regulations. It applies to all works in a dwelling (and also some settings which share a supply meter with a dwelling) regardless of whether it is notifiable or not.

The exams are merely a mechanism by which one can demonstrate your competence in terms of your ability to understand and comply with the requirements laid out in Part P.

Providing you are competent enough to comply with the requirements of Part P you can do what ever you want as long as you comply with the notification requirements.
 
Yep of course he can, but then he will not be complying, if he does some of the above without first informing his LBC, usually for a small fee.
small fee my ARSE. £300 to LABC if you want to fit a bathroom fan. they must think we all fell of a Xmas tree. Do It and Be Damned.
 
If I hear anyone else say 'when I get my part P'......I'm going to scweeeeeeam the forum down.
I haven't got my part P, wish I did have a part P....seems I'm the only f****r without a part P. I'm feeling left out not having a part P. I'm gonna have to get a Part P.

Nope, I haven't got one either. Never have had one & never will have one.

No I haven't got one either, never saw the need, mind Part P wouldn't mean much when you are doing some rewires on staff accommodation in Ulan Bator.
 
Im not Part P but still carry out domestic work, I served a 6 year apprenticeship & have worked for myself since 1970 without any problems. Part P was introduced to stop unqualified people doing electrical work but turned out to be a scam as DIY stores & wholesalers still sell to unqulified people.
