Yes. Kitchens are special locations so any electrical work is a pain in the arse
Special Locations are a entire Chapter in the Regs. There are some very specific rules about them.
You can do it yourself, which is what I'd do, but you need to inform the local council, get permission and get them to get another Part P electrian to sign the work off.
Yet there are 3 day Part P Kitchen Fitter courses.
I spent 3 years doing my C&G.
Can you tell I'm well fucked off about this?
Mr_Sworld-
Kitchens and outdoor locations were removed as special locations in 2013. They haven’t been added back have they?

Why don’t you just do the part p exam? It’s a total piece of piss.
£150 is the cheapest I can see:

I'm sure it's complicated, but what constitutes a new installation then? Would moving sockets from the left to right of those appliances count? Or fitting a shallower patress box so I can fit a ducting reducer?
