Part P Confusion

wolfboy · 20 Mar 2016

A friend is a qualified electrician and has the 2391 Competence/Testing qualification, but is not registered with ELECSA or similar. This is because he doesn't do private work, so it's not worth the cost of joining.

My question is, if he does some electrical for me, would he be able to issue a certificate for the work without being registered?

Many Thanks
Martin

He can fill out a generic BS7671 certificate recording the test results and sign it.

What he can't do without joining a scheme is self-certify the work for building regs purposes. This only matters if the work is notifiable though.
