What exactly do you need to be able to sign off electrical work in the UK?
Depends rather on exactly what is to be signed off for what purpose
A lot of electrical activity needs no sign off at all and at
At one end almost anyone with a pen and nerve can do an inspection, but for the purposes of 'notifiable' domestic works, membership of a self certification scheme is the only cost effective legal way.
For example http://www.niceic.com/join-us/part-p-domestic-installer-scheme
For commercial and industrial it rather depends on who has asked for the work, and if there are requirements imposed either by contract or by insurance. It is sometimes done on large projects, that designers, installers and inspectors are 3 different people or organizations, and they may all in part sign the installation paperwork, but only in respect of their respective functions.
It is not simple, but with a bit more detail of the sort of thing you want to sign off, then it can probably be clarified.
