DIY or sparks?

You mean carrying out an EICR is a criminal offence, ooh er, the prisons are gonna be full

This (from another poster and from the planning portal) seems to suggest that only notifiable work needs to be safe:

"Building Regulations: Checking for safety

Where the electrical installation work is notifiable it should be checked to make sure that it is safe. This checking can be done by:"

Shirley it's wise to have any electrical work checked for safety?

So you think your behaviour is amusing, your standard of comprehension demonstrates you should not be working as an electrician, are you really "qualified"? because you don't know "or care" what EICR means. By your own admission you don't carry out an EICR, you said "I have no problem testing and signing off third party work, easy money" What about the Inspection and Condition report?

Can't be bothered with you, go away

Even if I do, the questions which you refuse to answer will not.

I didn't think anything read what you said, so how many times have you tested and signed off third party work? how many dangerous things did you ignore? will their house burn down tonight? will some body get killed? just for your easy money.

Have you actually ever seen, or read, the third part of a 3-part EIC?

Or an EICR?

Maybe that's what he is signing.

Actual all electrical work must be safe ie comply with part p. However only for notifiable (higher risk of error) work you have to to follow the prescribed process for making sure. Otherwise it's down to you too decide what you're happy with (otherwise the would be a lot of red tape for less gain) there's nothing to prevent you getting your electrics checked even if you just changed a light switch, but the regs won't insist on it.

Not really.

Not really.

Yes really.
The op is asking about real life, not your special world where even a DIY socket change needs full testing and certification.
