Default Safety test of electrics

Roughly how much would I expect to pay for an electrician to provide a
signed BS7671 electrical safety certificate?

The Internet is a little confusing; I have read that it is illegal to
issue a BS7671 certificate if you didn't do the installation.

I also read that an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) should
be all you need although this isn't included on the form.

I also read that the local Council should be able to certify but then read
that they won't usually (perhaps).

https://www.mybuilder.com/questions/...y-of-a-part-p-
certificate,-bs7671-certificate,

The work relates to modernising the kitchen electrics (discussed yeah
these many years ago on this forum; probably around 2006).

Any advice on the most cost effective route?

Cheers


Dave R
