AFAIK, CORGI can't 'self-certify' work not directly related to the
installation of a gas appliance.


They are one of the 10 Part P guilds. Are you saying that I can only
install a new kitchen ring final circuit if I also install a boiler at the
same time?


So say the DCLG
(http://www.communities.gov.uk/index....8&syncNav=1#5). The
only organisations currently able to fully self-certify are BRE, BSI,
ELECSA, NAPIT and NICEIC. CORGI is amongst those who can self-certify
if they do "electrical installation work as an adjunct to or in
connection with their primary work activities - for example, gas
installations, plumbing, kitchen or bathroom fitting...".


That would invariably be the case.
Pedantically I would say that electrical, heating, gas and plumbing works
are an adjunct to my core business of rental property management.
