Hi all,
i'm just about to re-fit by kitchen and would like to carry out some basic rewiring. No I know major electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician, but am I allowed to do the basics myself.
I'm looking to;
a) Drop the ceiling and put in 4 downlights running from the original light
b) Add/move a couple of power sockets
That's it really. I shouldn't have to move the cooker circuit as the oven is staying in the same place.
Can I carry out this work by myself? And would it need checking by the council?
Thanks in advance
