What qualifications should an electrician in Dorset have?
An electrician must hold Part P certification for domestic work and be registered with NICEIC, NAPIT, or ELECSA. The 18th Edition Wiring Regulations qualification is the current standard.
How do I verify an electrician in Dorset?

Do I need a Part P electrician for new sockets in Dorset?
Adding new circuits, consumer unit changes, and work in kitchens/bathrooms requires Part P certification. Simple like-for-like replacements of sockets and switches typically don't, but it's safer to use a certified electrician.
What is the difference between NICEIC and NAPIT?
Both are government-approved competent person schemes. NICEIC and NAPIT both certify that electricians meet required standards. Either registration is equally valid — the key is that the electrician is registered with at least one.
