Get Free QuotesWhy Safe, Compliant Electrical Work Matters for Your Home
Electrical safety is one area where there is absolutely no room for compromise. Faulty wiring is one of the leading causes of house fires in the UK, and substandard electrical installations can create ongoing risks that may not manifest for years after the work is done. Ensuring that all electrical work in your home is carried out to BS 7671 (18th Edition Wiring Regulations) standards is not just about compliance — it is about protecting your family and your property.
From an insurance and property value perspective, the consequences of uncertified or substandard electrical work can also be serious. Home insurers may refuse to pay out for fire or damage claims if the electrical work in a property was not carried out by a registered contractor. When you come to sell your home, buyers' solicitors will ask for electrical installation certificates for any notifiable work carried out.
Using a properly qualified electrician in Stourton gives you peace of mind and protects your most significant financial asset.

Electrical Regulations and Legal Requirements — FAQ
Part P is the section of the Building Regulations (England and Wales) that covers the safety of electrical installations in dwellings. It requires that notifiable electrical work is either carried out and self-certified by a registered Competent Person, or approved by a local authority building control officer. Part P came into force in 2005 and applies to all domestic electrical work in England and Wales.
Notifiable work includes: new circuits, consumer unit replacement, and work in kitchens (within 3 metres of a sink), bathrooms, swimming pools, and outdoors. Adding a socket to an existing circuit in most rooms is not notifiable, but adding a new circuit is. If in doubt, ask the electrician — they have a professional and legal obligation to know what is and is not notifiable.
Yes. In England, the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 require landlords to have the electrical installations in their rental properties inspected and tested at least every five years by a qualified person. The resulting Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) must be provided to tenants and, on request, to local authorities. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to £30,000.
Uncertified electrical work can complicate a property sale. Buyers' solicitors will typically ask for electrical installation certificates for any notifiable work. If these cannot be provided, a buyer may request a reduction in price to cover the cost of having an EICR carried out and any remedial work completed. It is always far better and cheaper to ensure work is certified correctly at the time it is done.
BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations) is the applicable standard for electrical installations across the UK. However, Part P of the Building Regulations applies only in England and Wales. Scotland has its own building standards system, and Northern Ireland has its own Building Regulations — but BS 7671 is the recognised technical standard throughout. Electricians registered with SELECT operate under the Scottish system.
