Hi chaps,
Got a few questions about the example work for joining a scheme...
For a start, is there any way around going down the LABC route for my example of major works for my initial NICEIC inspection? My flat is currently wired to 15th Edition, so thinking it would make sense to upgrade to a 17th Ed CU as my example of major work. Of course the age-old problem is that I can't do the work without being a scheme member and I can't be a member without doing the work! Do I just have to accept that I'm going to have to pay the LABC for this one?
What's the NICEIC view on the DNO fuse "falling" out at convenient times? If I show them my new install, but the DNO seals have fallen off, will that be an issue?
And finally, do both my examples have to be on different properties? Not too much of a problem if they do, as my folks live nearby and I'm sure they'll let me do some minor work to show the NIC...
Cheers!
