Part P Electrical Building Requirements
 
 

Part P - Building Regulations __

 

 

|| Part P, Electrical & Building Regulations

Major changes to buildings and domestic electrical regulations were introduced by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM) in January 2005, under a new amendment
to the Building Regulations:

> Regulation 7, 2000 Building Regulations: (amendment 3, SI 2004/3210).
.
This change (defined, but not restricted to as 'Part P' within the regulations) has greatly affected electrical alterations and installations within and around domestic dwellings.
These changes now directly affect how domestic electrical work is conducted, and
indeed even whom may carry out this work.

The following frequently asked questions (FAQ's), provide more details about Part P,
and how the supporting building regulations affect domestic electrical installations.

If your question is not answered within these FAQ's and / or you have any further
