NAPIT Assessment

Hey Team,

I am just joining NAPIT for first time and have a assessment to prove my competence. My issue is i am still working full time so have no installations for them to inspect. I have told them this and they said put 2 installs into my house but as we all know if it was that easy we would all do work at home but its chasing walls etc to do this. 

My question if anyone knows would they allow a simple Radial Socket below fuse board and a batton with light switch again just below board? Its simple but once they come they can ask all the questions they want and look at my CV and qualification to realise who i am competent wise. I am really only joining as i would like to do landlord certs in own time and sometime this year will be going it alone doing certification and inspection work.

    Quite agree - call NAPIT - they have lists of what they expect you to have for the assessments - both paperwork and practical examples. The list changes from time to time.  I offered a CU change but they said I needed a new circuit as well - so up pops a new circuit about 200mm long to a double socket alongside the CU. NAPIT HQ not happy but assessor was OK about it.  NAPIT assessors generally seem far more pragmatic than NICEIC assessors.  I'm surprised they are doing assessments at present with COVID but then you must remember its all about money to them and you're new money so you get prioritised over existing customers.
