Answered by Sarah, Electrical Safety Expert

All electrical installation work must meet Part P of the Building Regulations. 

Apart from some types of minor work, all electrical work must either be reported to the local-authority building-control, or be carried out by an electrician who is registered with one of the Government-approved scheme providers. The registered electrician will issue you with a certificate on completion of the work.
