[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 485206, member: 1408"] The more I see these days , the more I think you're right . It seems obvious to me , first of all we can all earn a fortune sitting on the " Electrical testing of Rental Properties" committee. Waffle about it for a couple of years ...when all they need do is follow the Scottish method . The whole thing stinks for me ..... lets break it down using Dekelogic :- 1) Rental properties should have elects tested every 5 yrs . Yes Good idea . 2) How does Gas testing work ? They go to a local Gas Safe contractor . Yes Good Idea. 3) How should the electric testing work ? Go to a local registered contractor. Yes Good Idea 4) How did Scotland do it ? They went to a local contractor . Yes Good Idea. 5) How should England do it ? Just the same . Yes Good Idea Meeting one over , everyone down the pub , problem solved . Yes Good Idea . How are we REALLY doing it ? We'll create yet another money making scheme and insist all testing is done by some sort of elite squad of highly trained electrical engineers and charge a fortune for testing and ignore the fact that electricians are testing installations every day as a normal part of their job .
