Correct - so not as simple as "Extra-low voltage lighting installations are a special installations, regardless of room."
SCHEDULE 4 Descriptions of Work where no Building Notice or Deposit of Full Plans Required
2. Work which—
(a)is not in a kitchen, or a special location;
(b)does not involve work on a special installation;
I have read that, I deduce from that any work that is carried out as 2(a) or involves 2(b) is non-notifiable.
So work in kitchens, special locations and installations are notifiable.
A special installation would apply to installing an ELV light that is not pre-assembled and CE marked.
So I am back here now.Correct - so not as simple as "Extra-low voltage lighting installations are a special installations, regardless of room."
A replacement is a replacement.
You can replace a light with any other type of light.
Read Schedule 4. You start at the top with the position that the work is notifiable, because that's how the law works - it does not define what is notifiable, it defines what is not.
Read down the list - if you find a match, stop - the work is not notifiable.
If you reach the end without finding a match then the work remains notifiable.
shedbang - basically you stop reading down Schedule 4 as soon as you find a match with the work you are doing. It's only if you get to the end without finding a match that the work remains notifiable.
That's not very friendlyGo away.
