You could ask for a minor works certificate. They will look at you like you're from outer space. Strictly speaking you should get one but they are very rarely given. If it's just a socket installed in an existing circuit there are no real regulatory problems, pretty much anyone trained in safe working can do it.

It's actual a new circuit. There's a cable coming in to my loft, not sure where it comes from or if it's entirely suitable, but my best guess would be a circuit for an electric shower that was never installed.
If it does lead back to the CU then my plan was to use it to get power in to the loft, no idea if that's legit, hopefully a qualified electrician can tell me.

I need a socket installing at pretty short notice and as such am contacting randoms on mybuilder. What should I be asking for in this scenario, some sort of certificate of work?
