[QUOTE="ehorwich, post: 498933, member: 32911"] Hey Guys, I have a few questions about being able to sign off major works certificates in the UK and have some questions that I keep getting different answers depending on who I ask, so here goes. Firstly, I have my DEI (Domestic Installers Award), my BS 7671 18th Edition and my ECS Trainee Card. I am also hoping to get my City & Guilds 2391-52 Inspection & Testing certificate when colleges begin to reopen. Here goes, question 1. 1) Will the City & Guilds 2391-52 Inspection & Testing certificate class me as a competent person and allow me to carry out EICR and issue major works certificates? 2) Do I need to be a member of a competent person’s scheme (NICEIC/Elecsa/Napit/Stroma) to carry out EICR and issue major works certificates? (according to the part P Electricians Guide I do not need to be a member, but it does not say how to become a competent person). 3) With my current qualifications am I eligible to be a competent person? 4) If I do choose a scheme it will most likely be Stroma (and work my way up to either NICEIC or Napit). According to Stroma, I need to provide works certificates when the do an evaluation, without being a competent person does this mean they will only look at minor works certificates, as I can’t sign off major works.
