I don't reckon the OP has had the work done at all, he is still fishing.

I think you misread my post mate. I did not say they are 'on par with a time served electrician'.
What I said was "they are electricians, but just at a different knowledge base"
Go on then, I'll be the awkward one that says "They are not electricians in the eyes of the JIB which is the unofficial standard by which the industry at large grades and employs workers. Just because the advent of part P encouraged the short course qualified worker enabled by the schemes does not mean that the traditional definition of electrician has been broadened or diluted"
Interesting... So you are suggesting you have to have a JIB card to be an electrician?
If that's the case then I don't have one..
How many people on here don't have one?
I suppose everyone has their own interpretation of "electrician"..
I work in an office an as far as I know, no one in the office has a JIB card.. I class the electrical guys as "electricians" and the mechanical guys as 'metal bolters...'
Just looking, it seems there's been more time spent on it than doing the bleedin' job...I think the most effective,thorough and complete job,is the one the OP has done on this thread.

If you was working on the tools and wanted to work on say an Airport, Hospital, Industrial Water Treatment Site etc etc as an Electrician your be lucky to set foot on site with out one.
There's a big world out there apart from working around someones house and that where the JIB card plays its part.
