An electrical company can employ non qualified people to do the work, it is not the individual, it is someone in that business that must hold the necessary qualifications.

About 20 years ago, I installed a power shower unit in my bathroom. Even as long ago as that, I needed to get a professional electrician to check the installation complied with the regulations, despite it being taken off an existing power supply. The electrician I got to do it was good enough to state that it was fine and didn't charge !

On a couple of houses I've built and several extensions, I've done all my own wiring but, checked out and certified by qualified friend. Same with gas plumbing and gas co. also test for leaks before meter can be connected.

In Scotland at least, this is limited to adding a spur, replacing a socket, and similar. What's expressly forbidden is adding a new circuit from the CU.

Hi Lewis
Thank you for your email
Our current stance is that as long as the batteries are professionally installed and all the battery management systems are compatible with lithium batteries then this would be ok.
Therefore we would require them to fitted by a qualified person.

Lewis, can you ask Lewis what the definition of professional is and what are acceptable qualifications?

I asked him a couple more questions but got the same generic replies. I don't want to put too much time into questioning them, as i think i will just move to Craftinsure,
Waiting for a reply from Navigation and General and Pantaenius.

I am currently with them and they require "professional sign off", but i was hoping they changed there policy.

I did a LFP install for a customer who is with Pantaenius and they required proof that the installation was specified and installed by a professional, along with some other requirements.
