    REC can not cert someone else's work. I'd imagine REC will insist on rewiring themself before issuing cert.

    Is it possible for me to disconnect and leave everything in place and reci to test and reconnect everything?

    RECI takes ownership of the whole installation when issuing a certificate. I don't believe they are allowed cert someone else's work even if they wanted to. The only exception (I think) is if an employee has done first fix.

    Might seem extreme but the regulations are there to help save lives

    There will probably be issues anyway if it's a DIY install

    There always is

    Ya that's fair enough, panels are all mounted and interconnected and wires ran back to the PV combiner box, inverter mounted, 10mm wire in place back to the consumer unit with a 2 pole disconnector. If there are issues fair enough they can be fixed.
