But LABC can't and won't issue any Edn 17 paperwork which is not the same as Part P. Use a proper qualified sparky from the word go.

in theory the council should be able to certify for part P, however in practice some councils don't have a clue. If you're not planning on selling the property soon, and your friend is competant I would let him do it if he's saving you a lot. However I would ask him to complete an installation certificate (blanks in the wiring regs) having fully tested on completion. I would also inform the council in writing before he starts, if they aren't interested it's not your fault. when you do sell, the buyers surveyor will prob recommend they have a periodic inspection done.0
