Guest Alarm Guard Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Nobody else think Part P is requlation gone to far? I cannot understand why Part P came about. ..... and whatever the reason, it is IMO ill conceived and cannot acheive the intended result because no-one seems to know what the hell the intended result is! Additionally, no-one wants to enforce it, and most people who it effects don't even know it exists. Apart from that, it is OK. AG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arfur mo Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 i agree part 'P' is very irritating, i'm no a sparks but like manny others was taught properly how and where to wire a simple fused spur by a trained sparks when i first started out, i must have fitted hundreds since in 35 years. so silly cat calling apart, by most yard sticks i can be concidered competant if not an expert. the aim of the act was to to reduce the deaths and fires caused by faulty and home brew electrics, if you concider most people are very wary of gas which you can smell the danger well before it kills or exsplodes, but almost blasey about electricity which we cannot see or even smell, so the idea was to make people more aware and apply penalties. the law is always a blunt instrument to use as a tool, cobled together often by 'want to do good' knee jurkers with little actual knowledge. imo don't think it should be wide open, but commonsense deems it needs a scheme where you can demonstrate your ability and get certificated say @ 5 or 10 year intervals, make it compulsery for firms or tradesmen who install minor electrics such as spurs or external lighting, but time served practicing sparks should not need this and be exempted. regs alan If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
