Default Building Regs Submission - Best Approach Part P

Hi all

I have recently had plans drawn up for alterations to a rear study extension
and side kitchen extension.
I know the spiel about kitchen being a notifiable zone for Part P.

My question is whether electrical work can be mentioned (but played down) on
a general building regs application drawing and if this then satisifies the
"notifiable" bit.

My intentions for the back room are to:
Move light switches
Move light fittings
Add socket(s)
Change socket(s)
Include a return to the CU for the sockets (currently run as a radial
spur!).

For the kitchen:
A complete re-work is required in terms of locations of sockets, cooker
point, lighting etc.


Question:

Can I cover these changes with general notes on drawing such as relocate
switches (for back room)
AND
relocate sockets and cooker point to suite revised kitchen layout (to be
determined)

Does this satisfy the notification bit?
Are they likely to give a general approval and "overlook" reference to
electrical work?
Does this save me money in that the details are (sort of) included on this
application rather than submitting a separate electrical application later?
Is it better not to draw attention to electrical work at all?

Thanks for any input on this subject (particularly from experience!)

Phil
