Part P Compliance Costs — What You Need to Budget For
Notifiable electrical work in England and Wales must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations. An electrician who is a member of a government-authorised Competent Person Scheme (such as NICEIC or NAPIT) can self-certify this work — meaning they notify the scheme, which then notifies the local authority on your behalf and issues a completion certificate. This service is typically included in the electrician's charge, but it is worth confirming this when reviewing quotes.
If you use an electrician who is not scheme-registered, you would need to apply for building control approval separately before work begins — an additional cost and administrative burden. The appropriate electrical certificate (an EIC or MEIWC) must be issued on completion of all notifiable work regardless of the route taken.
Ensure any quote you receive for notifiable electrical work in Chapeltown explicitly includes certification costs and confirms the electrician's scheme registration.
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.
