Confused over part p

[PEDANTICVINDICTIVEMAN]

Right got the acops elements, got the 2 million liabilty, now this 6 years insurance crap, do I have to have underwritten insurance for the whole CH installation (boiler rads pipe etc) or only the electrical connections to it ????????

Smells expensive to me if it's the lot. Are you gonna take pics of it all just in case somebody alters your install in future, then tries it on if sumat goes wrong.

Question: If you wire a plug on your boiler and provide power from an existing socket, does part P apply

So, are you paying your £170 reggie fee + £200 for a chappie to come and check your wiring is up to snuff?

I've been putting off doing the C&G 2380 course for ages, so this part P stuff has just given me a kick up the jackzi to get it done. yet more test equipment to buy.. you thought you had it bad with a FGA!

All that's in the Corgi Mag - do you get one? Not everyone does. Can email a scan if you don't.

You have to be qualified to put a programmer in a kitchen, say.

What about the 6 years warranty ????????

 

[kevplumb]

pleeeese tell me you are having a giggle

 

[corgiman]

You only have to have the means to offer a six year warantee up to the client to contact your insurers and pay for it!!!

Is this another pie for Corgi to get their sticky little fingers into?

 

[corgiman]

as unbelieveable as it sounds NO

its a requirement of part p of the building regs thats all

its to ensure that if you **** up a job and then go bust the client can get an approved op in t sort it out

haven't had time to read any mags this week, let alone the corgi one . So what about if the programmer is RF - does that get around the 'high risk' room issue?

Corgi are involved with Part P and they also sell insurance.

That's what I was thinking. I know RF programmers are more expensive, but the price will drop when the volume of sales increases. It has to be the best workaround available.

but you still have to hard wire the reciever mate

face t the man has got you coming and going

as for CORGI at least you can go elsewhere for your insurance where else do you go to prove gas competency?????

Is that a problem if the receiver is not in a kitchen or bathroom?
