[QUOTE="phil d, post: 505181, member: 27126"] I remember some years ago, I didn't normally do domestic but ended up on a job for a builder I knew as the spark had let him down, anyway the building inspector turned up and we got talking, and what he told me really worried me, and explained a lot. I asked him how he found it, keeping up with all the recent changes in the regs, there'd been quite a few at the time, not just on the sparking side but on other trades as well. "well, I don't really have to study the new regs, none of us do, you guys are the professionals, so if you tell me that this installation complies with the latest regs and you are issuing a ticket, then I take your word for it" Well that explained a lot didn't it, the thing is if building control are not trained up to police the trades then what is the point of building control, after all, most people are under the impression that BC are the last line in making sure everything is done correctly.
