Application Form Notes

Notes for Completion of Form

8. From the 1

January 2005 any new electrical wiring or fixed electrical components for a domestic dwelling or

outbuilding must be designed and installed in accordance with Part P of the Building Regulations. There are three

ways of ensuring this which are shown on the application form. The quickest and simplest method of compliance is to

use an electrical contractor who is a member of an electrical Competent Person Self Certification Scheme approved by

the Secretary of State. If your electrician is not a member of one of these schemes, you must ensure they are suitably

qualified to undertake the installation and be able to design, install, inspect and test the installation in accordance

with BS7671. Copies of suitable qualifications must be provided and Building Control will require, at completion, an

Electrical Installation Certificate signed by the electrical contractor. If your electrical contractor cannot demonstrate

their competence, or you wish to undertake the electrical installation yourself, Building Control will arrange for the

testing to be carried out for you. Should you wish to pursue this option, a full detailed design of the installation must

be submitted to us for approval. We will then inform you of when we wish to inspect/test the installation for which

you must provide reasonable access.

FAILURE TO DEMONSTRATE COMPLIANCE THROUGH ONE OF THE ABOVE ROUTES WILL PREVENT THE ISSUE OF A

COMPLETION CERTIFICATE.

Please note as part of any domestic works should any notifiable electrical works be carried out where the contractor

is NOT a member of an Electrical Competent Self Certification Scheme an additional charge will be payable as part of

your Building Regulations submission. Please see the fee tables for more information.
