Hi guys and girls,
I'm looking for some advice as I've recently bought my first home and I'd like to fit some new lights in most of the rooms. I know that I could get a professional in to do this, but I enjoy a bit of DIY and would like to get my hands dirty and learn about the electrics around the house. None of the work is urgent, so I can afford to spend some time learning before it needs doing.
What I need to know is, what qualification/certification do I need to be able to legally do this? I understand that domestic work needs certifying and I'd like to be able to do this myself.
Any recommendations on where I could take a course would also be appreciated. I live in Leeds, so anywhere around Yorkshire would be ideal (though I can travel if necessary)
Thanks in advance!
Gareth
