[QUOTE="Sidewinder, post: 393934, member: 9512"] bertie, There is a difference between replacing a flex on an appliance and a total re-wire of a light fitting and replacement of the lamp holders, and, re-configuration of the means of earthing of the fitting body. That would be major modifications, and re-building as it were, not simply a re-wire. Plus TBH, not many of your normal trading standards people understand electrics, they use experts for that same as HSE do when they have problems. It might to you seem simple, however, it seems from your posts to me that you don't fully understand what you must achieve to ensure that the product is safe. [/QUOTE]
