Question about certification of electrical works

[Dave]

I'm thinking of doing my own wiring as part of the extension work that's currently under way, I believe I'm competent (I've done similar stuff before and I'm a Chartered electrical engineer) and it will be completed before Jan/05. The building inspector will be inspecting (surprisingly ;-) ) the building work but will he/she be interested in the electrics? What are the rules about certification of the work? Do I need to get someone in to sign it off? if so, who? Is there anything else I should know?

If you're in England or Wales, and start the building work (and get the first inspection) before 1st Jan 2005, then no.
