Any electrical work carried out in a dwelling must be carried out in line with the Part P regulations. There are a number of organisations with whom an electrician can register in order to comply with these regulations. 

This means that every electrician that is registered with one of these schemes is required to meet a minimum standard established for electrical installations. These schemes require that all of the work we carry out, in a dwelling, is notifiable to the local authorities, and the self certification schemes were created to make this process easier. 

It is important to ensure that any electrical work you have carried out in your home is done by an electrician who is registered with one of these government approved schemes and you can check here to see if the person you are considering has registered.

So why is it important to choose a registered electrician?

Ensuring that the work is carried out by a registered competent electrician is important for a number of reasons, such as:

• The future sale of your home could be effected as a compliance certificate is required by the buyers solicitors to show that any electrical work that has been carried out on behalf of the seller is safe.
• It could have implications on your household insurance.
• For safety.
• and many many more!

We have chosen to register with NAPIT who are a leading government approved and UCAS accredited membership scheme. 

So why choose a NAPIT electrician?

• Able to complete work safely and to legally required standards.
• Regularly assessed to ensure ongoing competence.
• Capable of working to the latest health and safety regulations.
• Able to provide you with the necessary certificates to demonstrate the regulatory compliance of what they do.
