Lisa Faye Chardonnay asked:

I know this is obscure but maybe someone will know of an inventory appraiser in central California who would be good at appraising an electrical contractor’s inventory. Thank you!

I am an Electrician, do i need Part P?

JAY asked:

I am a qualified electrician with a Level 3 (2391), Testing and Inspecting, certificate. Do still need to take a Part P course to carry out domestic installations? or, is the Part P just for none qualified contractors to enable them to become competant installers?

M C asked:

I took out a private tenancy on a house in England, UK, two months ago. Before I moved in the landlord had had improvements carried out and had done much of the wiring himself. He is not a qualified electrician.

I am particularly concerned about a reading light fitting above my bed. It is in a metal casing, which comes off to show the wires inside. Some of these wires are not entirely encased by their insulating cover/flex and are only millimetres from the metal cover of the lamp. I fear that if the wire meets the inside of the metal lamp, which could easily happen as the case comes off and is very loose, my children or I could receive an electric shock as soon as we touch the lamp’s outer case.

My questions are

Must my landlord have his work checked by a qualified professional?

Am I over reacting?

Who is responsible for investigating such situations if I am not over reacting – would it be the Councils health and safety department?

Thanks for reading this.
