The new Part L requirements are as follows:
"Reasonable provision shall be made for the conservation of fuel and power in buildings by:
-
Limiting
- Heat losses through the fabric of the building;
- Excessive solar gains; and
- Heat gains from pipes, ducts and vessels used for space heating, space cooling and hot water storage;
-
Providing energy efficient and properly commissioned fixed building services with effective controls;
-
Providing to the owner sufficient information about the building and its building services so that the building can be operated and maintained in such a manner as to use no more fuel and power than is reasonable in the circumstances."
W Wright Electrical Ltd has been accredited to The Electrical Contractors Association (ECA) approved Electrical Energy Efficiency Schem and are able to self-certify that their electrical installation work carried out in commercial, industrial and domestic buildings complies with Part L of the Building Regulations, covering the following three scopes of work:
- Lighting
- Electrical Heating
- Controls
W Wright Electrical Ltd as part of their Part L accreditation employ Energy Supervisors. These Energy Supervisors are experienced individuals responsible for ensuring that electrical installation work is designed, installed and commissioned in compliance with the Building Regulations. As Energy Supervisors they will be suitably qualified and have satisfactorily completed a suitable Part L training course, recognised by the ECA. (T34-006 'Part L for Energy Supervisors').
As a company registered with the ECA scheme, we have the right to self-certify that our work complies with the Building Regulations. This means that any electrical installation work carried out within the scope of Part L does not have to be inspected by a building control body.
Clients that use Wrights “registered as a Competent Person” have the reassurance that they are using a firm that has been independently inspected and certificated as competent to carry out the work.
