Gas can be smelt, Water can be seen but Electricity cant be detected until its too late. As a result you should always make sure the Electrician you use is both registered with an accreditation body and competent to carry out the electrical services you want.
So what is a competent person?
The HSE states that “A competent person is someone who has sufficient training and experience or knowledge and other qualities that allow them to assist you properly. The level of competence required will depend on the complexity of the situation and the particular help you need.”
How do you know the work has been carried out correctly?
Any tradesman should issue the correct certification (where applicable) for any work they carry out. This means the work has been tested and meets the correct requirements. If you are still not sure, you can always contact the accreditation scheme the tradesman is part of to check the credentials for peace of mind.
Areas to watch out for!
Some areas of the house are classed as a special location such as a bathroom or shower room. Therefore these can require specific permission from the local building authority. So this is another reason to use a tradesman that has the correct accreditation and membership to a governing body. As we all know water and electricity doesn’t mix.
