Big changes in the rules for domestic electrical works as of the 1st of October.
It will mean that only a Registered Electrical Contractor (REC) can complete electrical work in domestic premises,
with the exception of
Minor Works.
q -Should I call qualified person to do the works and provide certification or some other document?
Adding sockets would not be deemed minor works.
You are way better off to get the job done and certed by a RECI electrician.
It will cost a bit but you are covered 100% with insurance.
Regardless of the new RECI rules, your insurance company might already insist on proper RECI guys doing the job.
Don't get me wrong. Plenty of electrical work is easy but unfortunately the cowboys have driven
the industry to become very regulated. Ireland has some of the strictest electrical codes in Europe.
Pity bugger all else is regulated so tightly.
For example replacing a socket face is minor. 3 screws, live earth neutral. Job done.
Adding a few new socket outlets requires a few factors to be considered and calculated.
And it's these tiny differences of experience that make the difference between safe job and dangerous job.
