......DIY electrical work that does and doesn't fall within the scope of part "P" still goes on and doesn't get notified.........

I know an electrician who's been at it for 50 years or more and never qualified.......He was only fined £300.00 for neglegence and not complying to the E.A.W.R; plus costs.......
I can't believe you can make electrical installs without qualifications and a registration in England. I thought you worked with a system more advanced, I'm surprised!!
