Certain electrical work in the UK requires a Building Control notification to ensure safety and compliance with regulations. This includes, but is not limited to, the installation of new circuits, consumer units (fuse boxes), and alterations to existing circuits in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces. Additionally, any work involving electrical installations in special locations like swimming pools, saunas, and hot tubs must also be notified to Building Control. It's essential to check with your local authority or a qualified electrician to determine if your specific electrical project necessitates a Building Control notification to avoid any legal or safety issues.
