Do I need a building consent to do electrical work in my house?
No you do not require a Building Consent.
Council has no jurisdiction over electrical work. Electricians certify their own work.
For any electrical work or information on what you can and cannot do yourself, you should contact a registered electrician.
You can find them in the yellow pages or on the Electrical Contractors Assn of NZ website.
The Electrical Workers Licensing Group provides registration and complaint assessment services to the Electrical Workers Registration Board (EWRB), responsible for the ongoing competency of about 38,000 registered electrical and electronic workers.
It transferred to the Department of Building and Housing from the Ministry of Economic Development on 1 September, 2006, as part of the Government’s suite of reforms designed to provide improved and integrated services to the building sector and the public.
The Electrical Workers Register is an electronic register which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Access the Electrical Workers Register.
