Electrical question:

Installation of a CISA lock on a shared door. It's to replace an existing Yale. The CISA lock uses electricity.

Does this require a minor works certificate? (In Scotland, if that changes things)

It's not unusual work for the contractor but I want to be sure everything is done by the book so paperwork is available if/when I sell my flat in the future.

Scotland does have different rules in part. However in England a minor works certificate should be issued even for a lamp change. This doesn't happen in the wild. If you can find an electrician willing to charge you for the time and effort to do the paperwork that's great.

Cheers, spoke to the contractor and he says it's never done under a minor works cert as it takes low voltage power from an existing installation, or something to that effect.
