You guys need to come down to EARTH with those replies.:smilewinkgrin: and get a bit of continuity in your posts
 
Getting back to the theme of the thread.............
When I estimate for laying underfloor heating mats as part of a tiling job, I itemize the description of work to be undertaken with the rider - and will be left with cold tails, tested for continuity, for connection by a qualified electrician.
As others I'd change the electrician as you are doing the correct proceedure and its has to be checked by him before connection and signing off! If it doesn't work he doesn't connect - simple.
 
Just for the record. An electrician can only sign off work that he has installed and tested himself. This is a requirement of part p of the wiring regulations. Any electrician who does not, and I am one of them (I like the money), is not doing his work correctly. If something was to go wrong with the underfloor heating and it caused any sort of problem he would be responsible for it, the sections on the electrical installation certificate that he fills out are all signed by him. I dont mind the responsibility but maybe he is not sure enough about his testing to know if it is ok.
