As it says, how many do electrics?
is it components and electrics associated with plumbing?
or do you also do house wiring?

Just trying to get an idea across the board
 
yes, everything. then I know a friendly spark that will inspect and cert for me.
 
Components inside the pumps, and only from the fused spur if installing.
 
Yes but not full houses, just things like from com to fcu etc
 
I prefer to do any wiring I can if it is straightforward and also because most Sparks are rough
 
I do my own heating wiring. But any testing is done by a sparks I know. He also does all my bathroom wiring. I can wire s plans quicker than him so he doesnt mind.
 
I dabble in a bit of electrics but I've got a contractor I use, there's 2 of them and they are good at heating so I'm happy, saves me couple hours and their cost is factored into the job.
 
Heating systems, immersion heaters, etc. Was part p years back. W.o.t!
 
Yes. Everything to do with heating. Industrial, commercial and domestic single and three phase.
 
wiring heating systems and from fused spur also any compoents and immersions

I think you need to define what you mean by electrics. In my experience most self cert electricians would not get involved with wiring heating systems preferring to leave that to the Competent Person or Benchmark certified tradesman. However, since 2005 I have never touched any paying customers electrics especially wet areas, preferring to leave responsibility and verification to a Part P sparks. This followed the successful prosecution and imprisonment of a local kitchen and bathroom installer for doing exactly that.
