I did a lot of electrical work in our house (replacing the CU, fixing errors in the existing circuits (radials with 32A fuses, lighting circuits with 16A fuses etc), adding sockets, rewiring kitchen, adding power to outbuildings etc) when we moved in 10 years ago (and subsequently as we found problems, until 2005 when the rules changed). Obviously this was before building regs applied to electrical work, so we didn't need to do anything with the LABC.
I've seen comments here about people needing certificates if they came to sell their house and had done work themselves *now* - but how would a potential buyer know that I had done the work prior to 2005 so it didn't need a certificate?
