I completely rewired my house (in the new colours too) - but at the end of 2004...so I got away with it! Never so much as replaced a light switch before, but with common sense, research, the assistance of a helpful sparky and a healthy respect for electricity it wasn't too difficult.

I got it checked by the sparky at work who is qualified, but it wasn't documented in any way as it wasn't required.

I bought all the cable in red/black, then at the advice of the sparky sent it back and swapped for the new colours. It dates the rewire at no earlier than 2004, just incase someone asks at a later date should I sell the house. Good idea I suppose.
