This one is probably down to your BCOs judgement as to if the EIC you
handed in was a final document or not. If he knew there was extra
electrical work to be done then you should be able to carry on with
the 16th.

All the best mate but this one is down to your BCO unless you think I
have missed something in my reply.



Cheers mate,

I've been working to the 17th the whole way - it was just the procedure
of certification that I'm not sure of:

Is this an MWC or an EIC for additions in a special location to an
existing circuit? Never been sure what a MWC is actually for...



Unsurprisingly a 4 day Part P course does not cover such nuances!


No but the NICEIC Testing and Certification book does.

And in the check list for MWC the first one on the list is

"Additional (non emergency) lighting points (luminaires and switching on
a single existing circuit)." And it says a MWC is acceptable.

So unless it's a new circuit from the CU you can use a MWC.

Actually you could probably hand in your old school reports and no one
would notice or care.
