You do not have to be a member of a competent person scheme to do PRS EICRs, although the 2 competent person electrical schemes would like you and the public to think otherwise, but you do need to be qualified and competent holding an 18th Edition Qualification and a Periodic Inspection and Testing Qualification and insurance.
The only thing the renting regulations state is:
“qualified person” means a person competent to undertake the inspection and testing required under regulation 3(1) and any further investigative or remedial work in accordance with the electrical safety standards;
It doesn't further define what constitutes "competent". So I would guess that holding an 18th Edition Qualification and a Periodic Inspection and Testing Qualification are useful things to demonstate to a judge that you are competent, but I don't see that they are required.
