Indeed on can do their own work, when done get it passed.
...because the rules have changed and it's illegal to do home electrics in bathrooms and *******s without the correct certificates.
I do, I have been doing it all morning , but I cannot tell that when I sell the house.
Not strictly true as you've stated it, I sailed through the loopholes just after they were introduced, and I'm not getting into an argument here.
Suffice to say I won the argument with building control, much to their disappointment
Everyone has their own interpretations of the rules, same as the gas regs.
In any case, anyone who does their own gas/electric and who doesn't know what they are doing deserves to be blowed up.

You can still do your own but not other peoples.
Its an old chestnut that it illegal you just have to be "competent" clearly a periodic for electric and a Landlords for gas means your work has been deemed competently done.

Did anyone suggest you would get into an argument here?
check for leaks using the bubble type solution after re-connection
So, can a homeowner wire their own k-itchen...and then get it signed off?
What about gas...can a homeowner connect their gas cooker...and get it signed off?
Is there a need to get signed off in either situation. You can probably guess why I ask.
A competent person would double check by doing a drop test with a manometer.

he must have to be considered to be a competent person as he is employed by company who are contracted to do the annual service and he had the GasSafe logo on his van.
