Hello, i've rewired my own house. I'm fully qualified but not Part P. I've done it properly to the letter and have tested it. To the letter...
I'm gonna get my Part P mate to sign it off.
What do i need to do about building control? It's ok to say that i did the work and that a Part P electrician came and tested it and signed it off, isn't it?
If not, then what should i have legally done? Payed someone 3 grand to do the work that i could have easily done myself?
What happens when i sell the house if i don't say anything to BC, but still get my mate to sign it off?
Surely i'm allowed to do what i want with my own electrics in my own house?
As it goes, i've made it a thousand times safer by geting rid of the horrors that i found (socket radial wired off of the boiler thermostat, bare twisted together joints, cables ran with heating pipes inside the lagging, no earth in the lighting, no gas/water bonding, etc, etc.)
Do i just need to tell BC that it's been rewired and tested by a Part P electrician? I don't really know much about this as i've been working on industrial plant for the last 6 years...
Cheers.
