Rule 21: There is no rule 21
Problem is, the search facility here isn't very good.
You can't actually search for 'part p', as it ignores the 'p' and returns everything with the word 'part'.
Look:
gets you
Changing the search to just 'part' gets the same results, proving that the 'p' is being ignored:
And you can't force it to look for 'p' as well:

Tony, have a look under some of the threads about Part P. There's loads - also on other forums. There's nothing to stop you doing the work if you're competent but there is now a regulated approval route that you're meant to go through.

Eww, Internet Explorer.
Ther is a list (in Part P) of what you can/can't do if you are doing DIY work, this list details what work does not require notification. In the event that you do work that goes under this list you can ask a "competant" person to test and certify it for you.Tony6 said:
I think that rewiring the house ineeds notification, as well kitchen, and bathrooms (and other special locations) there are some exceptio9ns. to find them you should read The @part P' document.
Sorry1
By the way, I'm sure that the input from our 'part P expert' could help here...
Thanks for that......
I`ve read through some of the threads but im still confused .
I`ve read part p as saying you can do minor works ie add on an extra socket to a circuit, or change a ceiling rose your self without informing the local authority.Fine no problem
But where i lose it ,Is when it states to do major works ie install a new circuit you need to inform the local authority and be competent.
I understand informing the local authority on major works
However does the word competent mean qualified to do you own electrics in your own house? As with most trades when the government say competent they mean qualified.
i was hoping part p wizard would reply
thanks tony.....
Thanks again ............i
